September 29, 2022 (San Diego) - Last night was boring and the Padres ended up losing, which usually happens during boring games.  Both teams looked for the series win tonight.  Brusdar Graterol started for L.A. against Steven Wilson.

Brandon Drury kicked things off with a two-RBI single in the first, but Miguel Vargas hit a sac fly in the second that scored Will Smith and the Padres led 2-1 after two.

 
Freddie Freeman singled in the sixth to score Mookie Betts and Vargas singled to score two and the Dodgers now led 4-2 after six.
 
Smith hit a solo homer in the eighth and the Dodgers took the series from the Padres with a 5-2 win.
 
UP NEXT
 
For the last series of 2022, the Padres have an interleague matchup with the White Sox.  Game one is Friday at 6:40 p.m.  Davis Martin starts for Chicago against Yu Darvish.
