Everything started out so well for the San Diego Padres. A beautiful mid-March Sunday afternoon full of sunshine and baseball. Unfortunately, Luis Perdomo ran head first into a Giant wall (pun intended).
Perdomo entered the game with an early 1-0 lead after this Wil Myers home run.
Then, the bottom of the first happened.
Perdomo gave up a triple to Gregor Blanco followed by a walk to Andrew McCutchen and Buster Posey. Hunter Pence, hitting .105 coming in today’s game, then took it upon himself to clear the bases with this grand slam to deep centerfield.
