- Goodman went 3-for-4 with a third-inning solo homer and a seventh-inning RBI double; Purple Row reported he also set the club’s single-season hits mark by a catcher.
- Jordan Beck delivered a two-out RBI single in the fifth to extend Colorado’s lead to 2-0 at Coors Field.
- Victor Vodnik secured his seventh save after the first two Padres reached in the ninth, ending it with a Manny Machado double-play grounder.
