July 10, 2021 (San Diego) - The Padres got a nice, easy, non-dramatic win last night. Tonight, they looked to take the series. German Marquez started for Colorado against Grossmont High alum and Padres sole no-hitter owner Joe Musgrove.
Things stayed air-tight until the fifth when the Rockies loaded the bases and Charlie Blackmon singled on a ground ball to right to score two and Musgrove was done. Austin Adams replaced him and got the Pads out of the jam, but the Rockies took a 2-0 lead after five.
C.J. Cron added some extra padding in the seventh on a deep sac fly to right to score Raimel Tapia and the Rockies coasted to an easy 3-0 win to even the series. The Padres fell to 53-39.
