In dramatic fashion the Padres are one step closer to closing out their 2018 month of May with a 4-game series win thanks to a fortunate walkoff. A healthy combination of good pitching, a donger, and a perfectly-timed final pair of runs spelled success for the Padres.
Clayton Richard came into today’s game after a shaky start against the Dodgers, where he allowed 2 homers. Tonight, he allowed a home run, but that’s just about all the Marlins would get from him. In 7 innings Clayton only gave up 4 hits, three of them in the 4th inning and one of them in the 5th.
