Just another night at PETCO Park. Padres lose 3-1

San Diego Padres 1 – St. Louis Cardinals 3

Another night at PETCO and the same old Padres result. The Padres lost their 4th straight game at home and were held to one run on the night. Dustin Moseley pitched well in the start going 7 innings and only giving up one run, but was only able to get one run from his offense.

Heath Bell came into the game in the ninth inning to try and hold it for a possible walk off victory, but he could not hold the tie. He gave up a couple of runs in the ninth inning and takes the loss.
