Talk about a beat down. The Padres beat the Rangers 24-7 today and racked up 25 hits. Russell Branyan had a game fit for a video game. He went four for six with two homeruns, five RBIs and four runs. Adrian Gonzalez also homered as did Kazmar. There was a lot of offense in this game for certain.
Greg Maddux made his last start of the spring and looked sharp. He gave up two runs on four hits and a walk with five strikeouts in six innings of work. Linebrink closed the game out with a perfect ninth.
David Wells takes the mound for the Padres tomorrow against the Royals in a day game.
