Tampa Bay has already won the series against San Diego: 9-4 on Friday, August 28, and 7-6 on Saturday, the 29th. The losses were not the same, because on Friday the Padres were hampered by a fourth inning in which they gave up five runs and managed only four hits, while on Saturday they entered the seventh inning up 6-3 and a sequence of walks, singles, Luis Rengifo’s injury, his throwing error, and Chandler Simpson’s decisive hit changed the game. That does allow us to say the series exposed two different immediate flaws, but it is still not enough to turn them into a diagnosis for the entire season. On Sunday the 30th San Diego can respond and avoid the sweep, not recover a series they have already lost: what would they need to show in that final game, considered together with the two previous ones, to change the narrative? https://www.mlb.com/video/game/822935 https://www.mlb.com/news/padres-can-t-hold-lead-in-second-straight-loss-to-rays

Tampa Bay ya le ganó la serie a San Diego: 9-4 el viernes 28 de agosto y 7-6 el sábado 29. No fueron derrotas iguales, porque el viernes los Padres quedaron condicionados por un cuarto inning de cinco carreras y apenas produjeron cuatro hits, mientras el sábado llegaron al séptimo arriba 6-3 y una secuencia de boleto, sencillos, la lesión de Luis Rengifo, su error de tiro y el hit decisivo de Chandler Simpson cambió el juego. Eso sí permite decir que la serie expuso dos fallas inmediatas distintas, pero todavía no alcanza para convertirlas en diagnóstico de toda la temporada. El domingo 30 San Diego puede responder y evitar la barrida, no recuperar una serie que ya perdió: ¿qué tendría que mostrar en ese último juego, visto junto con los dos anteriores, para cambiarles la lectura? https://www.mlb.com/video/game/822935 https://www.mlb.com/news/padres-can-t-hold-lead-in-second-straight-loss-to-rays
