Colorado Rockies reliever Franklin Morales, who had 6 straight saves since Huston Street was injured, was wild in the 10th, walking 3 to give the Padres the win 3-1 on a walk off walk tonight at Petco Park.
Heath Bell blew his 2nd straight save at home and 3rd straight against the Rockies, giving up the key hit to Yorvit Torrealba in both games.
Tim Stauffer had another good outing giving up just 1 run on 3 hits and 4 walks in 6 innings. Sean Gallagher got his first win as a Padres with a scoreless 10th.
Esmil Rogers made his first major league start for the Rockies giving up 2 runs on 3 hits and 2 walks over 4 innings.
With the win tonight the Padres surpassed their win total from 2008 with 19 games left in the season.
The rubber match is tomorrow at 1:05pm.
Clayton Richard takes the mound for the Padres against Jason Marquis.

Sean Gallagher as the PTBNL
Tuesday July 14, 2009
Yesterday mlbtraderumors.com reported that Sean Gallagher would be the player to be named later in the trade that sent fan favorite Scott Hairston from the Padres to the Oakland A's.
John Sickels of minorleagueball.com had a great article on Gallagher in March of this year. He said Gallagher's potential has been compared by Pecota to Brad Penny, Jeff Suppan and Jake Peavy among others. Sickels sees Gallagher as being an inning eating #3 starter.
Gallagher, a 12th round pick out of high school by the Cubs in 2004, throws a 90-93 mph sinking fastball with a plus curve, slider, and change up. He was the centerpiece of the trade that sent Rich Harden to the Cubs during the 2008 season.
This season the 23 year old Gallagher has a 8.16 in 2 starts and 6 appearances for the A's and 1.74 era in 5 starts with the A's triple A farm team in Sacramento. He is currently on the DL with a strained knee.
So we may be looking at Peavy and Young followed by some combination of Gallagher/Latos/Correia/Baek/Stauffer as the 2010 Padres starting rotation?
Not too bad.
Now will the Padres have any hitters?
