Adam Mazur pitched six innings of one-run ball in a strong major league debut for the Padres, who have lost three straight for only the second time since April.
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Zach Neto had a tiebreaking two-run double in the seventh inning, and the Los Angeles Angels won their first home series of the season with a 4-2 victory over the San Diego Padres on Tuesday night.
Manny Machado had an early run-scoring single, but San Diego's powerhouse lineup struggled against the Angels. “I thought I hit it right to ,” Neto said. “That's why it took me a while to get out of the box. ... It's awesome to be able to come through like that when we struggle with runners in scoring position, especially later in the game. It's a good feeling, seeing everybody in the dugout just cheering.”
Mazur is a 23-year-old former second-round pick from the University of Iowa who made just four starts for Triple-A El Paso before getting called up to fill the hole in San Diego's rotation created by injuries to Yu Darvish and Joe Musgrove.“Mazur was fantastic,” Padres manager Mike Shildt said. “You can't ask for much more. Six pretty much clean innings, very efficient, overcame a couple of walks. Got in a jam. Made pitches when he had to.
