Preview the July 10 matchup between the Arizona Diamondbacks and San Diego Padres with recent trends, how to watch, livestream info, and more.
Luis Arraez homered leading off the seventh inning and Jackson Merrill and All-Star Fernando Tatis Jr. made home run-robbing catches for the San Diego Padres, who beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 1-0.
Diamondbacks starter Brandon Pfaadt entered the game with a 5.42 ERA and went eight innings for the first time in his career. The Padres scored both their runs and managed four hits against the right-hander, who had not had a quality start in any of his eight starts leading up to Wednesday.
San Diego Padres star third baseman Manny Machado recorded his 2,000 career hit in the team's loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday.
San Diego Padres right-hander Yu Darvish made his season debut on Monday against the Arizona Diamondbacks ( GameTracker ). Darvish, 38, had been sidelined by right elbow inflammation.
Darvish was well past his prime when the Padres got him, yet has avoided a serious arm injury in his Padres tenure. Similarly, Snell suffered no alarming setbacks — certainly nothing comparable to the shoulder ailment that has sidelined the Dodgers’ $180-million winter addition for most of this season.
The Diamondbacks almost landed Manny Machado at the 2018 trade deadline, but they didn't, which brought in Zac Gallen.
