Steven Wilson gets first major league save; Matt Beaty drives in first run with Padres
Manny Machado believes the way he and Eric Hosmer are preparing and playing is setting a tone.
“We’re pushing everybody in this clubhouse to be the best that we possibly can,” Machado said. “If we bring it every single day, everybody else is gonna have to come in and bring it.”“It will click for us,” he said. “And when it does, it’s gonna be dangerous.” Friday night, Machado and Hosmer got the Padres started, and then it clicked for a couple guys that had not done much this season, and then Machado took care of business again.But it worked Friday, as Yu Darvish went seven innings and Robert Suarez and Steven Wilson closed out a 3-2 victory over the Marlins at Petco Park.
It was the first major league save for Wilson, who pitched the ninth because closer Taylor Rogers had pitched the previous two days and six of the previous 10 days.Marlins pitcher Sandy Alcantara’s two-out walk to Machado in the first inning was followed by Hosmer, the new cleanup hitter, smacking a double to the gap in right-center field that brought Machado around to score.game one or both of them drove in at least one run.
The Marlins, who had lost five straight leading up to Friday, got to within a run on Jesus Aguilar’s two-run homer in the sixth.
