The San Diego Padres (30-30) got off to a great start Tuesday night. Clint Barmes doubled home Cory Spangenberg in the 2nd and in the next inning, Will Venable led off with a solo home run, his 5th. He would finish a triple shy of the cycle. Things were going great for San Diego.
The Padres then extended their lead to 5-0 after a Yonder Alonso two-out RBI single and two doubles by Venable and Derek Norris.
