Padres Emphatically Change Momentum in Win

The Padres not only ended the longest scoreless streak to start a season any team in the history of Major League Baseball has endured – they broke through in grand fashion, scoring 13 runs to beat the Rockies for their first win of the young 2016 season. Matt Kemp hit a three run home run, Melvin Upton Jr.hit a home run, and Yangervis Solarte went 3-5 with 4 RBI for the Padres to lead the offense. Every position player starter had at least one hit, with Kemp going 4-6 on the day.
