The Los Angeles Dodgers had more success against Yu Darvish than in his start at Petco Park last week, but it wasn’t enough in a 6-1 loss to the San Diego Padres. The Dodgers have dropped two consecutive games to their National League West counterpart and at best will tie the series.
The Dodgers were quick out of the gate with Mookie Betts leading off the first inning by pulling a double down the left-field line. After Justin Turner’s walk put runners at the corners with one, Max Muncy blooped an RBI single into right field.
Darvish got out the small jam with a double play and that propelled him toward another strong outing.
