It doesn’t happen often, so I have to highlight it. But not only did they win, they CRUSHED the Braves 17-2 last night at their season home opener. They’re still trying to figure out the lineup too. The #1 hitter spot this year has gone 2 for 30 (0.067) the first seven games of the series. That’s not exactly a batting average you want for your leadoff. 3 different hitters have occupied the first batting position, including Cabrera during Monday night’s game, but even he went 1-6 at the plate then. Maybe it’s just bad luck for them to bat first!
I guess it’s not that bad, Padres are 3-4 this year and so far undefeated at home! Of course, they’ve only played one game there so far… Could be worse- Houston is 0 and 7!
