Padres Wallop Diamondbacks


In Greg Maddux's career, he had only one win against the Diamonbacks. Now he has two. Maddux pitched yet another quality start (6.1 innings/2 ER) as the Padres defeated the Diamondbacks on Sunday evening 10-2. It was a dominating performance by the Padres as they hit five homeruns. Even Maddux helped in the scoring department with a double and run scored. It was career win #344. Maddux also extended his streak without issuing a walk to 48 1/3 innings.

The game puts the Padres alone at top of the division...although there are two more games in the series. Nonetheless it is always good to take the first game of a series.
