Eric Hosmer homers off Max Scherzer, Trent Grisham also homers; Yu Darvish allows one run in seven innings

The threat of a storm that never actually made its way across the East River to Queens delayed the start of the season’s second half for the Padres.

“When you’re facing a guy like Max and it’s a matchup of Yu and Max, you know it’s gonna be one or two swings that can kind of take the game each way,” Hosmer said. “So we did a good job of taking advantage of those.”After Darvish’s sterling seven innings and a perfect eighth by Nick Martinez, Taylor Rogers weathered a hit batter and a fielding error behind him to earn his 27th save, tied for most in the major leagues.

“We did a good job of really just sticking to our approach tonight,” Hosmer said. “We wanted to wait him out a little bit.” Rodriguez got one out, yielded a single to Jurickson Profar and walked Jake Cronenworth. Seth Lugo replaced Rodriguez, and the bases were loaded after Manny Machado drew a 10-pitch walk.

Of their 29 hits against him, Hosmer had 15. After going 2-for-3 Friday, he is batting .309 in his career against Scherzer, the ninth-best mark anyone of anyone with at least 30 at-bats against the 37-year-old right-hander.
