Randy Vasquez had his first misstep of Spring Training in the San Diego Padres 4-1 loss to the Texas Rangers at the Peoria Sports Complex on Monday. He allowed two runs on three hits<\/a>, walked two and had two strikeouts over four innings. That may not sound great, but when you consider how Texas was able to plate the runs, it makes the performance a little easier to understand for San Diego fans. A single, a stolen base and a two-out single scored the first run for the Rangers, but the second run came as a result of a two-out triple. Sometimes the batter puts the ball in the right spot to get the best result and that is what Brandon Nimmo did with a sharp ground ball down the right field line. Both runs allowed by Vasquez came in the second inning. He settled in for the remainder of his outing and kept Texas off the board. The Padres offense did not find much success against Rangers pitching. San Diego recorded four hits in the game and the one run the Padres scored crossed the plate as a result of an error.<\/p>\n
