The San Diego Padres dropped the first game of a three game series against the Milwaukee Brewers in an 8-3 loss at Petco Park in San Diego. Starter Joe Weiland went to 0-4 on the season, giving up five earned runs in five innings, including two home runs to Ryan Braun. Weiland did, however, strike out eight batters through his 100 pitch effort. Right fielder Chris Denorfia was 2-3 with a couple of walks for San Diego on the offensive side of the ball. Randy Wolf picked up the victory for the Brewers, moving to 2-2 on the young season.

After a terrible 10 game stretch where the team went 3-7, the San Diego Padres currently sit at the bottom of the National League West with a 5-14 record, already eight games behind the division-leading Los Angeles Dodgers. With such a poor start, there hasn't been much to get excited about in San Diego other than the solid performance of young third basemen Chase Headley, whose four home runs and 13 RBI's currently lead the team. In addition to home runs and runs batted in, Headley also leading the team in batting average (.309), runs scored (14) and OPS (.975).

The San Diego Padres have not gotten off to the strong start that they had envisioned; instead, a 2-4 record through the first six games have landed them three games behind the division-leading Los Angeles Dodgers. Offensively, the team has looked anemic - of the regular starters, Jason Bartlett leads the team with a paltry .222 batting average, while Chase Headley has the team lead with 5 RBI's. Clayton Richard has paced the pitching staff thus far; in his first start, Richard went 7 strong innings without giving up a run. He also struck out three batters over his 83 pitches. The team looks to rebound against the 4-1 Arizona Diamondbacks in a three game series this weekend.
