Offense at the Top

Chris Denorfria collected three hits tonight leading off for the Padres and figured in three of the team’s five runs as San Diego defeated the Braves by one run. He and Chase Headley are the only two regulars on the Padres with decent OBPs, and batting him lead off paid off tonight.

Ryan Ludwick picked up his seventh career game with at least four hits. Four of those came in the 2008 season.

Evil Player

The Evil Player program selected Chris Denorfia as Wednesday’s evil player. Chris was proving to be a major league player who could get on base before an evil elbow injury forced him to miss the 2007 season. Since then, his minor league numbers show a decline, and without any power to back him up, he’s spent most of his time out of the majors. He recently came back up with San Diego, but has yet to contribute offensively.
