While You Were (Day) Drinking – 2016 Game 82 (NYY vs SD)

Sometimes things get a little fuzzy during a Sunday afternoon at the pub. Here’s a friendly reminder of what you may have missed while you were drinking.

The Padres (35-47) scored fewer runs than the New York Yankees (40-41) yesterday afternoon, 6-3. The Padres were denied yet again for their first sweep of 2016 remaining 1-for-∞ on Sundays.

Andrew Cashner (3-6, 4.42) came off the disabled list and threw ninety pitches in six innings. Cashner allowed two runs (one earned) on six hits and two walks while striking out six. Didi Gregorius reached on an error by Alexei Ramirez in the second inning. and eventually came around to score on Ronald Torreyes’ double play ground ball. Gregorius hit a solo home run in the fourth inning. Mark Teixeira hit two home runs — the 400th and 401st of his Major League career — a solo one in the eighth and a two-run one with Brett Gardner on base in the ninth. Gardner knocked in Jacoby Ellsbury on his ninth inning single.

Chad Green (1-1, 4.09) earned his first win, surrendering one run in six innings on three hits and no walks with eight strikeouts. Yangervis Solarte went 4-for-4, coming a triple short of the cycle, and put the Padres on the scoreboard with his solo home run in the second inning. Solarte then scored in the ninth inning on Alex Dickerson‘s two-run home run.

The Friars travel to Phoenix to face the Arizona Diamondbacks (37-47) for three games starting tonight at 6:10pm PDT. Luis Perdomo (2-3, 8.49) gets the start in the first game against Archie Bradley (3-3, 4.50).

Cashner's bad luck starts on the first batter.

Could be a short outing for Cash, unless his athleticism carries him through. Because, you know, he is an athlete.#padres

— Bernie Wilson (@berniewilson) July 3, 2016

Cashner's slider is flat. This should be fun.

— William Lybarger (@LybargerBrewery) July 3, 2016

I think Cashner owes Norris a beer for that last k looking.

@gaslampball I thought it stood for Sycuan Domination.

Stop me if you've heard this before. The run charged against Cashner is unearned.

— Jeff Sanders (@sdutSanders) July 3, 2016

@Tony_Losoya You're no Dick Enberg.

@Mudcat55 critiquing Christian Betancourt’s gatorade dump strategy is fantastic.

— Richard (@gdarklighter) July 3, 2016

Solarte homers. Dick Enberg sings something weird #Padres

That's another bad call. Cashner was still in the box.

— Nathan Veale (@VocalMinorityNV) July 3, 2016

McGwire's land line game is bananas. #Padres

Wil Myers is an athletic All-Star ambassador.#padres

The closed caption on the game can't keep up with AJ Preller's rapid mumbling.

— Gaslamp Ball (@gaslampball) July 3, 2016

I like all the guys they're interviewing but I wouldn't mind watching the game #Padres

— Greg Weeks (@GregWeeksUNCC) July 3, 2016

Mark Teixeira's current swing makes a rusty gate look smooth.

Jon Jay creepy DL facial hair edition

Cashner sweaty arm night

— Padre Homer (@ParkAtThePark) July 3, 2016

Kemp said get that shift outta here.

— Carlos Collazo (@CarlosACollazo) July 3, 2016

That's fucking garbage, Andy Green.

— Oscar (@haha1721) July 3, 2016

Should I bet on Solarte getting a triple for the cycle or buy a MegaMillions ticket?

I agree. Megamillions it is.

— Ben Higgins (@BenHigginsSD) July 3, 2016

Oh Dick Enberg

— Padre Homer (@ParkAtThePark) July 3, 2016

I was beginning to think Bethancourt had died.

— Padre Homer (@ParkAtThePark) July 3, 2016

Quackenbush or Maurer…either way it's bad

— Tony Losoya (@Tony_Losoya) July 3, 2016

A-Rod pinch hitting in the 9th. Healthy harvest of booing at Petco.

— Bryce Miller (@Bryce_A_Miller) July 3, 2016

I've only covered MLB for parts of two seasons, but A-Rod easily gets booed more than any player I've watched.

— Carlos Collazo (@CarlosACollazo) July 3, 2016

ARod getting booed like he ran over a litter of puppies at a Petco. Woman near me: "Why is everybody here so mad at him? What he do to us?"

— Jay Posner (@sdutPosner) July 3, 2016

I have my issues with Cashner, but Quackenbush is the worst of the beard offenders.

— Padre Homer (@ParkAtThePark) July 3, 2016

Mark Teixeira looked like he was afraid to swing the bat yesterday. It was weird. Today, home runs in consecutive innings.
