PEORIA, Ariz. -- Nolan Arenado hit his second home run of the Cactus League season and Mark Reynolds added his first as the Rockies went on to a 4-1 win over a Padres split squad on Sunday.
Rockies starter Tyler Chatwood looked season-ready as he logged six dominant innings with seven strikeouts. After a pair of extra-base hits led to a run in the first, Chatwood buckled down and allowed only two more hits in his final five frames. He was efficient and in command, throwing 98 pitches, 61 for strikes.
"I felt like I got better as I went, and I still felt strong at the end," said Chatwood, who is scheduled for his final spring start on Friday and is in line to start the regular season's third game, at Milwaukee on April 5.
