Manny Machado homers twice, Jackson Merrill homers for ninth time in 16 games, Brett Sullivan adds his first home of the season in second straight rout at Fenway Park
The Padres’ Manny Machado, right, celebrates with Jackson Merrill after hitting a two-run home run during the third inning of Saturday’s game against the Red Sox. They were one defeat away from their first 0-6 road trip in 15 seasons.
It was not Suarez the Padres beat that day, but they did win the game, salvaging some semblance of positivity from the trip and, it turned out, beginning a surge. Manny Machado hit that many homers off Houck on Saturday, Jackson Merrill hit one, and Brett Sullivan hit one off rookie Bailey Horner, who replaced Houck after his shortest outing of the season.
With Donovan Solano and Jackson Merrill on second and first, respectively,Ha-Seong Kim grounded a ball up the middle at 102.5 mph that reached Duran quickly enough that third base coach Tim Keiper stopped Solano before sending him when the ball caromed off Duran’s glove. The run ended up being unearned when Sullivan struck out and Bryce Johnson grounded out to end the inning.
