Padres 3, Dodgers 2: Friars walk off again

Solarte returns to San Diego with some low-key heroism.

For the second night in a row, the Padres walked off against the Dodgers. Tonight the blame falls on LA releiver Chin-hui Tsao, who walked three Friars in a row to bring home the winning run in the eleventh inning. Cesar Vargas still hasn't picked up his first win, despite allowing just two runs and four hits in seven innings of work, but he kept the team in the game to earn their second straight series victory over the Dodgers.

It took five and a half innings for anyone to get on board in a game that started out has a pitchers' duel.
