Crisis Averted: Padres win first game of season

The San Diego Padres won their first game of the season 8-4 in the four-game series finale against the Los Angeles Dodgers Sunday. Highlights include a grand slam from Chase Headley, a two-hit pitching performance from Clayton Richard, and a solid game for Andy Parrino.

  1. First pitch of first #Padres Military Sunday of the year. Thank you to all those who have served. twitpic.com/97g3ls

    Dear #Padres, What can we do to ensure that the rest of the season looks nothing like last week?

    First win of the year. The #Padres are back on track. And thank God Headley actually remembered to swing and hit that grand slam.
