00:00Seattle Mariners, they were at home to the San Diego Padres and the Padres with a special

00:08performance from the one and only Manny Machado with a two run homer here, Donnie, takes the

00:15tally to 164 in a Padres uniform.

00:19So I guess a franchise best, it was only fitting that you, Darvish, backed up that offense

00:24to get him the win 7-3.

00:27Yeah, big time there.

00:27And also you see that score 7-3 in Seattle.

00:30That's a rarity here.

00:31That's one of the ballparks here that you take a look at and say, I don't know if I

00:33want to go over, not just because the pitching matchups or even the hitting matchups here

00:37is that ballpark is always tough to score runs in a true pitcher's park.

00:40But the Padres got seven of those yesterday, as you talked about, Manny Machado, 2-5

00:44yesterday for RBI, including that home run, hitting 276 on the season.

00:49Louie Arise at that leadoff spot, 3-5 yesterday, raising his average to 318.

00:54But the bigger product here was you, Darvish, improving to 5-3, that extended

00:58stretch on the I-L, ERA around 3.52.

01:02And you take a look at yesterday, five innings pitch did scatter those seven

01:05hits, only giving up two earned runs.

01:07If you can get you, Darvish, back to what we thought he could possibly be before the

01:12injury, that is a massive help for the Padres, as I do believe they are going to

01:16make the playoffs.

01:17And that if they can set that top of the rotation here with that dominant bullpen

01:21and also a solid one through line, they're going to be a tough team to be knocked out

01:25in the playoffs if they do get there.

01:27Solid win, the Padres now 82 victories on the year.

01:30Now the Mariners, only one game over 500, falling back once again in that AOS.

01:35I don't think you're gonna be able to overtake the Houston Astros here, but a

01:38good win for the Padres, won that one easily.

01:40But the bigger question is here, can we continue to see solid performances out of

01:44you, Darvish?
