San Diego Padres manager Mike Shildt explains Padres need to figure out 'stingy' opponents after their loss to the Philadelphia Phillies.
The San Diego Padres were outmatched for the second game in a row as they fell to the Philadelphia Phillies 5-1 on Saturday. The Phillies took a 2-0 lead early in the first inning, before adding three more runs in the fifth. Phillies ' Alec Bohm and Trea Turner got the better of Padres starter Dylan Cease with Turner notching three hits and two runs as Bohm hit a home run and four RBIs.
Phillies' starter Ranger Suárez also proved dominant in this matchup. He pitched for eight whole innings and allowed just three hits, zero walks, and one run while striking out eight hitters. That run did not come until the eighth inning, when Eguy Rosario mustered one home run for the Padres. The Padres could barely get on base, and the lineup had one of their worst games of the season.
“I mean, surgical is the best way of saying it," Shildt added."You’re talking about, we don’t like it, but we also got to respect it, we’ve got to compete against it and figure out a way. That’s what winners do.”
