San Diego Padres starting pitcher Matt Waldron works against the Colorado Rockies during the first inning of a baseball game Wednesday, April 24, 2024, in Denver.
Colorado, which has yet to win back-to-back games this season, fell to 6-19. The drought without back-to-back wins is the longest to begin a season in franchise history. The longest such single-season streak in franchise history was a 35-game stretch in May and June 2022. “I think we started making some good adjustments, so next time when we face him will have a good game plan. I think we’ll have more success against him.”
Diaz’s two-out solo homer in the eighth off lefty Wandy Peralta provided Colorado’s second run. Diaz also threw out two baserunners — Fernando Tatis Jr. in the seventh and Jackson Merrill in the ninth — attempting to steal second. Xander Bogaerts led off the game with a solid single to left, and Tatis followed up with a walk. Blach got Cronenworth to pop out to left field, but then he walked Jurickson Profar on a 3-2 count to jam the bases — a killer mistake in Coors Field’s wide-open spaces.
Although Vasquez struggled in his three starts with Triple-A El Paso before being called up last Saturday, he gave the Padres a solid start against Toronto in his 2024 major league debut. He limited the Blue Jays to one earned run on four hits and one walk while striking out three over five innings. With Yu Darvish out with a neck injury, the Padres need Vasquez to give them one of two more solid starts. The rookie has not faced the Rockies.
