A pair of potential All-Stars shined on Friday night, but it was backup catcher Austin Barnes who stole the show for the Dodgers as they cruised to a 10-4 win over the Padres, a source of happiness that will likely get remembered more for some anger in the early innings.
Barnes started things off in the first inning with a two-out grand slam off Padres left-hander Clayton Richard. After hitting the ball hard but with nothing to show for it in each of his next two at-bats, Barnes added a three-run shot in the sixth inning that put the game away.
