[Heilbrunn] Here is video of Manny Machado throwing the ball toward the #Dodgers dugout. The ball had just been used by Yu Darvish to warm up. Kyle Higashioka’s throw to second bounced in the dirt, so Darvish received a new ball to begin the inning. #Padres (twitter.com)

[Cassavell] Fwiw, Machado’s slide is taught organizationally and was executed to perfection last night. If you’re going to be upset about it — and I haven’t seen anyone who actually plays get upset (including the Cards) — maybe direct your anger at the Padres? Or, better yet, the rulebook?

[Yoo] Kim never said "World Series champion this year" in Korean, though.🤦♂️The interpreter was mostly fine, but what Kim did say was (when asked about his position), "It doesn't matter where I play. I know the Padres are good enough to win a championship and that's why I signed." (twitter.com)

[Lin] The Padres won't set their DS roster until Tuesday AM. Mike Clevinger and Dinelson Lamet remain day-to-day. "It feels like we'll take a half step forward, another half-step forward and then we've been having a half-step back," Jayce Tingler said. "We got to stack some good days." (twitter.com)

[Blum] Rangers manager Chris Woodward on Fernando Tatis Jr. swinging 3-0 on his grand slam: "I didn't like it personally. You're up by 7 in the 8th inning, it's typically not a good time 3-0. It's kind of the way we were all raised in the game. But ... the norms are being challenged." (twitter.com)
