San Diego Padres News: MacKenzie Gore loves eight-pitch innings

Good morning San Diego Padres fans and Happy Friday. The Padres topped the Seattle Mariners on Thursday afternoon to improve their record to 10-2 on the spring. Greg Garcia knocked in all three runs – although the first was helped by a throwing error – including a two-run bomb in the top of the sixth inning.

Dinelson Lamet also dazzled in his second start and has tallied seven strikeouts in five innings while allowing just two hits this spring. However, both Lamet and Garcia took a backseat to MacKenzie Gore, the highly-touted 21-year-old making his big-league debut.
