Padres beat the Giants 9-1, restore their honor

Let me set the scene, the Padres hadn't scored in something like 22 innings since they were shut out the previous two games against the Giants.  Fans everywhere were being trampled trying to get off the band wagon.  Then without warning the levy broke and the Padres scored so many runs you couldn't count them on one hand alone.  All became right with the world again.

In the first inning the Pads' Wil Myers and Cory Spangenberg hit back-to-back singles and with the help of a walk to Upton loaded the bases.
