THIS DATE IN PADRE BASEBALL
1998 SEASON
Miceli Meltdown Leads to Dodger Victory
Dodgers 6 Padres 2
After Kevin Brown ran out of gas after 6 innings, striking out 8, the Dodgers took advantage in the 8th. Dan Miceli (7-4) surrendered 3 hits and a walk and watched them all score in a 4 run 8th.
The Padre offense was again sleepwalking through the game, only mustering 6 hits, with 3 of them, plus an error coming in the 4th, resulting in both Padre runs.
News and Notes - Jim Leyritz was in the on deck circle to pinch hit in the 9th, taking practice swings, when he suddenly stopped and went into the dugout and back to the clubhouse. Training staff said he felt a sharp pain in his left elbow, but initial reports are just a strain.
