The Rockies started their season with two wins against the host San Diego Padres, but that was the last time Colorado looked comfortable against any of its National League West rivals.
The Padres came back and won the final two games of the opening series, and the Rockies have now dropped eight in a row and 14 of 15 against division opposition.The teams will go at it again in a matinee on Saturday. The Padres will send Ryan Weathers to the mound to face Kyle Freeland in a matchup of left-handers.
Soto followed up a career-best, five-hit game on Wednesday with a single that sparked a three-run first inning. The Padres, already a potent lineup, got Xander Bogaerts back after he missed four games due to a wrist injury."I've felt better every day since I came out of the game ," said Bogaerts, who went 2-for-5 with two runs on Friday. "I feel good to play."
"We're going to take a step back with Pierce, move him earlier in the game," Colorado manager Bud Black said before the Friday game. "We'll see how each and every game plays out.
