    Well, hopefully Arroyo can get through the 8th and then have Aroldis on standby just in case.

    Exactly.

    Plus it isn't like Stubbs is all that successful swinging away anyway. Why not try to lay a few down on occasion?

    Tommy Layne is on in the 9th for the Padres to try and close it down. Unfortunately he will not be facing Laynce Nix.

    Baker: Hey Bronson, want to go nine?

    Arroyo: If not, who pitches the ninth?

    Baker: I thought maybe Broxton?

    Arroyo: Nah, who else you got?

    Baker: Maybe Marshall?

    Arroyo: Any other choices?

    Baker: Well, Chapman had Monday off.

    Arroyo: Deal.

    The Padres just got Garrett Jones out at the same time Bruce hit the homer. Double whammy.
