The Milwaukee Brewers started early and never stopped, running the San Diego Padres into the ground by the end of Thursday afternoon’s 10-1 Brewers’ win at Miller Park.
Milwaukee opened up the bottom of the first inning with a run, when Adam Lind singled home Scooter Gennett off Padres’ starter Odrisamer Despaigne.
In the bottom of the third, the Brewers got three more on a three-run bomb from Khris Davis to make it 4-0 off Despaigne, who was having a poor start and a sub-par season.
In the bottom of the fourth, Despaigne added three more runs to his tally when the Brewers pushed across a run on Gennett’s RBI single, and two more on Lind’s RBI double to make it 7-0.
The Padres finally got in the game in the top of the fifth inning when Melvin Upton, Jr. hit a solo home run off Matt Garza, but other than that, the Padres were held to just two hits. Garza allowed them both — and just two walks — in seven strong innings of work, striking out five and earning his sixth win of the season.
Despaigne, on the other hand, fell to 5-8 with the loss, allowing seven earned runs in five innings on nine hits and three walks, while striking out only one hitter in the process.
Kevin Quackenbush further pushed the game out of reach in the bottom of the eighth inning, when he allowed another three-run home run to Davis — his second of the game — and the 52-57 Padres had a disappointing showing in their final game in Milwaukee.
