Tuesday night was exhausting to watch. After an up-and-down beginning to the game, the wheels eventually came off for the San Diego Padres, before eventually falling to Oakland Athletics, 6-2.
The contest started out on a high note, with Travis Jankowski recording a leadoff base-hit and advancing to third on a stolen base and wild pitch. Manuel Margot followed him up with a walk, putting two runners on with no outs. Then, Margot was caught stealing and both Eric Hosmer and Wil Myers struck out swinging.
San Diego threatened again in the third inning, loading the bases with no outs.
