Diamondbacks 3, Padres 1: Bruised but not broken!

“
Seems like no matter who the D-backs throw out there, the Padres have their number.” Those were the words of Steven Burt in yesterday’s recap. Today the D-Backs threw out Taylor Widener and the Padres will remember that for at least a couple of days:
What a performance from Taylor in his 1st-ever start. pic.twitter.com/AkOUKXAqzT— Arizona Diamondbacks (@Dbacks) April 4, 2021
Taylor Widener made his first start ever and threw 81 pitches, 53 for strikes, and was the main proponent of today’s 3-1 win. After 6 good innings from Widener it were Crichton, Young, Soria, Ginkel and Devenski who were able to secure the win in the 3 remaining innings, allowing just one run to the Padres. Offensively the D-Backs went 1 for 10 in RISP, but the at bats were not bad and they were able to knock-out starter Paddack after 4 innings and 89 pitches. Some early runs finally did the trick and allow us to taste a sweet, sweeeet victory over the Padres,
