PHILADELPHIA -- Luis Perdomo was everything the Padres have asked him to be on Sunday night in Philadelphia. He stayed in the strike zone. He was efficient with his pitch count. He dug in when faced with trouble.
But he wasn't good enough to beat Vince Velasquez.
In his best start of the season, Perdomo was still outdone by the Phillies right-hander, as the Padres dropped the nightcap of their doubleheader, 5-0. The offense fell flat after a 10-run outburst in a 10-2, Game 1 victory.
