Much of the talk around baseball so far this season has been the play of the up-and-coming San Diego Padres and their young ace Chris Paddack, who is the National League Rookie of the Year favorite. The Los Angeles Dodgers welcomed them to town on Tuesday and reminded why they are the defending six-time NL West division champions, earning a 6-3 victory at Dodger Stadium.
Paddack had arguably the worst start of his Major League career in what was his first outing against the Dodgers. He allowed five hits and six runs (three earned) in just 4.
