Final
Padres still trying to overtake top spot in NL West
Sep 22, 2007 - 1:29 PM Colorado (82-72) at San Diego (85-68) 10:05 pm EDTSAN DIEGO (Ticker) - The San Diego Padres will hope their heart-breaking loss Friday does not stop their moment when they look for revenge against the Colorado Rockies in the second of a three-game series Saturday.
The Padres had their seven-game winning streak snapped when Brad Hawpe blasted a home run in the 14th inning of the Rockies' 2-1 triumph on Friday.
The loss dropped San Diego to 1 1/2 games behind the division-leading Arizona Diamondbacks (87-67) in the National League West. Colorado sits in third place, five games back and virtually out of the division race.
San Diego leads Philadelphia (84-70) by 1 1/2 games in the wild card race.
Hawpe, who drove in both runs in Friday's contest, has two hits in his last three games and is batting .280 with 27 homers and 103 RBI.
Padres rookie starter Jack Cassell (1-0, 2.87 ERA) will hope to build off his best career outing. The 27-year-old righthander hurled six scoreless innings, yielding eight hits with no walks and three strikeouts in a 3-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday.
The rookie will be opposed by lefthander Mark Redman (1-4, 9.28), who is making just his second start since May 1. Redman was tagged for four runs and seven hits in Tuesday's 9-8 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers.
