Our boys showed up in style and secured a significant victory against the Rockies with a final score of 8-1. It was a terrific team effort from start to finish, and here’s how the magic unfolded on the field.Machado's Mighty Start
The game took off with a bang in the top of the first.

This explosive beginning was a sign of more great things to come!
Keeping the Pressure On
By the second inning, Jackson Merrill joined the party with a solo home run of his own, extending our lead to 3-0.
The Rockies managed to score a single run in the third, but the Padres quickly quashed any momentum they might have gained. Gavin Sheets and Ramon Laureano both sent the ball flying for solo home runs in the following innings. Add in some strategic plays and base running, and by the end of the fifth, we had padded our lead comfortably to 8-1. Everything seemed to be going our way!Locking It Down
Our pitching and defense also stayed rock solid. Despite a few hits here and there from the Rockies, Adrian Morejon and the rest of our bullpen squad held firm, denying any opportunity for the Rockies to rally. Ron Marinaccio closed out in style with solid pitching to ensure that no comebacks were on the horizon for our opponents. Great teamwork, Padres!
