Usually it’s a good sign when your starter takes the mound with a lead, but it didn’t work out too well for the Diamondbacks tonight. AJ Pollock lead the game off with a home run, but that was the highlight of the night for Arizona.
Godley just didn’t have it tonight. He gave up two runs in the bottom of the first, and then he gave up three more in the third. He never really found his control, and the Padres made him pay.
The bullpen didn’t do too badly, holding the Padres to just one run, but the offense was never able to show up, much less catch up from the early deficit.
