Why did the Padres get shut out by Dustin May and the Cardinals?

Ben Fadden 0:00
Alright, welcome on in here, Padres. They get shut out by Dustin May and the Saint Louis Cardinals. Sorry, I've got something going on in my left eye. So this might be a little bit of a quick show tonight. Uh I'm not crying because the Padres just almost got No hit by Dustin May. Um But no, that wasn't that wasn't pretty. Three nothing. And Dustin May is someone that We know that he's super talented. I always view Dustin May as someone that you don't want to face. Um, when he was with the Dodgers, like nasty, upper nineties velocity. Um but For me, the question with him was the sustainability, the consistency. How long was he going to be able to do that? Uh but in a burst like tonight, I I was not expecting a a complete game.
Ben Fadden 0:54
But when you have Dustin May on the mound, I'm expecting It to be tough. Uh I'm expecting it. to not be a fun night offensively and hopefully you can get to a Cardinals bullpen that had some of their guys being used. Um recently. So maybe they weren't gonna be available tonight. Uh but Dustin May stepped up on the perfect night. For the Cardinals to Not have to use that bullpen and They go on and win this game pretty darn easily. uh by a score of three to nothing. Um Padres went with an opener today. Wadi Peralta started and then they had Giolito be the bolt guy. Um Stamin was not managing this game. He was suspended because of the ejection the other day. Marinachio appealed his three game suspension. Um We'll see if
Ben Fadden 1:46
That gets dropped to a game or two games. Um Mason Miller, he is attending to a matter that he didn't want to publicly reveal. Um so he was not gonna be available today, but Doesn't matter, he wasn't gonna get in the game anyway. The Padres got one hit. In this one. Giolito. Didn't I mean he was fine. He was fine considering where G little at where he is in the rotation. He was fine. But Still didn't mean. He's just not someone that I Trust very much. Uh I I guess I trust him more than Griffin Canning, but Both of those guys are probably in that same group. Uh I trust Michael King. I trust. Walker Bueller right now. Randy Vasquez definitely more than Giolito and Canning. Uh but yeah. Gilito just not able to fully put it together.
Ben Fadden 2:47
Like you'll have good moments. You know, first three innings, no runs, but then he'll leave pitches too high. And I don't know if it's where Duran was setting up because Duran was setting up down the middle on some of these pitches. But Just balls that were left. Some that weren't even strikes, but they were just up in the z up, outside the zone, but like it's still a pitch that major league hitters are gonna get to and it's easier for them to get to, like uh Alec Burleson, for example.

What made Dustin May’s outing so dominant against the Padres?

Ben Fadden 3:18
It's easier for him to get to that pitch. Then probably a pitch that's low outside the zone. Or at least you're gonna the opportunity to do more damage is there when that pitch is high. rather than when that pitch is low. So if you're gonna miss, don't miss Richie Alito was missing tonight. And yeah, that's that. I mean, this game could have been worse. Jack Samaro robbed a homer and center. Great catch from him. Uh so it could have not been three nothing. It could have been worse than that. But some dude named Jimmy Crooks Doubled um Offigilio in the fourth. Burleson doubled, already just mentioned a moments ago. And yeah, yeah. The Cardinals they went two for ten with runners in scoring position tonight. So you want to talk about Merrill robbing that homer?
Ben Fadden 4:06
How it could have been worse. It could have been much worse if they came through more with runners in scoring position because they had a bunch of opportunities. They left six guys on base. But the Padres, on the other hand, just didn't do anything offensively. Um against Dustin May and and Dustin May tonight. He was good. Like You gotta give him credit. The breaking ball. The fastball late, you know, ninth inning, he was still hitting ninety seven on it. So It's one of those where You sorta gotta tip your cap, but at the same time it's it's frustrating because as a Padres fan, right? You see Dustin May on the mound and you're like
