The Padres have dropped three consecutive games, losing two straight and the series to the Marlins, then the opener to the Cardinals. St. Louis won 9-7 as Willson Contreras and Brendan Donovan hit three-run homers in a six-run second inning to pull ahead.

Hopping over to the other side, San Diego Padres third baseman Manny Machado has also dominated Cardinals starter Sonny Gray. He’s 11-for-32 with two doubles and a pair of home runs. Machado is having a nice season overall, hitting .285 with 18 long balls and 61 RBI.
