San Diego (1-5, -12, 6th) at Milwaukee (2-4, -9, 5th)
Starting Pitchers
Cory Luebke (SD) vs. Yovani Gallardo (MIL)
Game Recap
San Diego- 5, Milwaukee- 3 -- A 6th inning grand slam by San Diego's Chris Denorfia was the difference in this one, as Luebke went 7 innings and 4 Padre relievers combined to have shaky 8th and 9th innings, but Heath Bell came in to nail it down. A couple notes in this one, as San Diegos Jason Bartlett injured himself and will be out for a time TBA. Also, Milwaukee's Yuniesky Betancourt tested positive for steroids after the game and will miss the next 5 games.
