The Padres crushed the Rockies 11-1 on Wednesday afternoon thanks to 14 hits and 5 long balls, as the Padres won the series 2-1 at Coors Field. With Joe Musgrove being a late scratch, Nick Martinez stepped in to begin a bullpen game, and fired 3 shutout innings. But the rest of the bullpen had plenty of breathing room, as Ha-Seong Kim staked them with an early lead, launching a leadoff homer to begin the game. Juan Soto blasted an upper-deck 2-run homer in the 3rd, and Gary Sanchez launched solo homers in the 6th and 9th innings, while Fernando Tatis Jr. hit his 100th career home run in the 9th, in a game that was never in doubt. The Padres will enjoy a day off on Thursday before welcoming the Dodgers to town for a crucial 4-game series.
