Jack was 1 for 3 at the plate. In his first plate appearance, he lined one to the right side of the infield and was thrown out at first. With the bases loaded, Jack hit a single into right center his second time up and drove in two runs. He eventually came around to score by stealing home. In his third at-bat, Jack struck out.
Jack played four innings of the five inning game at shortstop. He had a mixed game in the field. He made a couple of nice catches on a line drive and a pop up. Ranging far to his left, he knocked down a grounder; Jack was able to find the handle and tag the base in advance of the runner. He also had a grounder that he could not handle that caught him in the elbow.
The Padres jumped out to a 10 to 5 lead, but could not hold it. Their pitching which has actually been better than I expected for most of the year collapsed. They lost by a score of 19 to 11 in five innings. Their record is now 5 wins, 5 losses and 1 tie.
