26-year old knuckleball pitcher Matt Waldron made his MLB debut for the Padres on Saturday night, and fared pretty well, allowing just 2 runs on 2 solo home runs through 4.2 innings pitched. Those 2 runs would be the only runs scored, as the Padres bullpen combined for 4.1 scoreless innings, while the Nationals shutout the Padres just one game after the Friars scored 13 runs. The Padres had several scoring opportunities, as they drew 4 walks, but went hitless with runners in scoring position and left 7 runners on base. The Padres will send Seth Lugo to the mound on Sunday for an opportunity to win the series.
