Tyson Ross was looking pretty good after four innings today. That fifth inning was a bit of a problem, though. He fell apart before serving up the grand slam that lost the game and the series for the Padres. There were bright spots: Hunter Renfroe hit a double and a homer this afternoon. The five runs the offense scored would have done the trick most days, but they still had a chance to win today... if they hadn’t gone 2-for-11 with runners in scoring position.
Tyson had trouble with the long ball early on, as the Pirates got on board first when Corey Dickerson went yard in the top of the second.
