THIS DATE IN PADRE BASEBALL
1998 SEASON
HAMILTON DOMINATES SNAKES
PADRES 3 DIAMONDBACKS 0
Joey Hamilton (9-9) dominated the Diamondbacks over 8 innings, allowing 4 hits and striking out 10. Trevor Hoffman picked up his 32nd consecutive save with an easy 9th.
The Padres needed Hamilton to be solid too, as hits were not too prevalent on the Friar side either. Arizona starter Brian Anderson (7-9) only allowed 6 hits, but 4 of them came in the 3rd inning, with Andy Sheets and Quilvio Veras singling in a run each. The Padres 3rd run came on a solo home run from Ken Caminiti in the 4th inning.
News and Notes - Traded Widd Workman (minors) to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Received Jim Bruske.
