Nick Martinez works seven scoreless innings, three relievers finish off 1-0 victory that concludes the Fernando Tatis Jr.-less portion of schedule
Juan Soto hit a home run in the fourth inning, Martinez worked seven scoreless innings and a 1-0 victory over the Braves concluded a dismal homestand and the portion of the Padres’ season that Fernando Tatis Jr. could only watch.
Because the three players the Padres have had in every lineup so far, a trio widely considered among MLB’s most exciting and productive players, have been unable to do any better than get the Padres to 9-11 while Tatis served out the final 20 games of last August’s sanction. Martinez went seven innings just once last season. Wednesday was his second time doing so in four starts this season. He allowed five runs while going that deep on March 31. This time, he got through seven innings without allowing a run for just the second time in his career. The previous time was April 9, 2015, while he was with the Texas Rangers.
