Padres' MacKenzie Gore: Strikes out eight

Gore allowed one earned run on three hits and three walks while striking out eight across four innings Friday for Double-A San Antonio.

This was Gore's second start since being promoted to San Antonio. He's now allowed only three earned runs across 10 innings at the level, though he has also walked eight batters. Though it's a positive that Gore is back on the mound at a reasonably appropriate level, he'll need to find the strike zone more regularly to succeed consistently and work deeper into games.
