TORONTO -- Lo bueno de enfrentar al venezolano Luis Arráez es que el plan de juego es muy simple. “Lánzale por el medio y espera que la conecte hacia alguien”, comentó el manager de los Azulejos, John Schneider. No tiene mucho sentido intentar otra cosa en este momento. Arráez fue una vez más el punto luminoso de una ofensiva de los Padres que está luchando con altibajos, al dar un doble y un triple en la derrota del miércoles por 14-0 ante los Azulejos en el Rogers Centre.

TORONTO -- The good thing about facing Luis Arraez is that the game plan is very simple. “Throw it down the middle and hope he hits it at someone,” Blue Jays manager John Schneider said.

The Padres got the Cy Young version of Cease once again in Tuesday evening’s 3-0 loss to the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre, a third-straight quality start that gave the visitors a real chance the whole way through. But the offensive troubles continued, and Cease’s gem was recorded with an ‘L’ next to his name. All the Padres could do after the fact was look forward.
