Blake Snell labors in 43-pitch first inning, Luke Voit's eighth-inning homer not enough to complete Padres' comeback against Mets
As Padres manager Bob Melvin laid out the expectations as Blake Snell settled back into the Padres’ rotation, a caveat was implied all along.Making his fourth start of the season, Snell labored through a 43-pitch first inning and was lifted in the fifth of an 11-5 loss to the Mets, owners of the NL’s best record, the best hitting team in the majors and the most patient.“It’s not them, it’s me,” Snell said after Monday’s loss snapped the Padres’ three-game winning streak.
Slowed by an adductor strain, Snell was coming off his first quality start of the season, but three straight walks in the first inning forced Melvin to warm up Nabil Crismatt in a hurry and potentially stress a bullpen already down some arms after Sunday’s extra-inning affair in Milwaukee. Escobar added a double in the fourth and scored on Brandon Nimmo’s single to center, and Manny Machado’s fifth-inning throwing error added an unearned run to Snell’s line as Mark Canha followed what should have been a harmless ground ball from Pete Alonso with a double down the third-base line, chasing Snell from the game.
Snell threw just 59 of his 95 pitches for strikes, walked three batters — all in the first inning — and allowed five runs on seven hits in four-plus innings. He struck out four.
