Good morning, baseball fans! I know we’re not thrilled about losing ground in the division, but let’s try to keep some perspective. The winning streak they were just on was amazing. Very impressive. But they literally can’t win every game and the Padres are better than the Cubs and Rockies. It was bound to happen.
Breathe. Step away from the stairs.
You can’t say they didn’t put up a fight, at least. Dingers on dingers. They’re gonna be just fine. A team that relies on their bullpen to pitch two full games per rotation is going to have a rough night now and then.
