Monday night in St. Louis was a difficult evening for the Padres: Cardinals starter Dustin May carried a perfect game into the seventh inning and finished with a complete-game one-hitter, with San Diego falling 3-0. Jimmy Crooks contributed a two-run double and Alec Burleson added an RBI single for St. Louis. The loss drops the Padres to 37-34. Manager Craig Stammen served a one-game suspension Monday — stemming from a June 13 incident at Camden Yards in which reliever Ron Marinaccio was found to have intentionally hit Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson — with bench coach Randy Knorr managing in his absence.
Catcher Freddy Fermin remains on the 7-day concussion injured list after taking a warmup pitch to the head during Saturday's Baltimore game. Shortstop Xander Bogaerts was also hit by a pitch in the Camden Yards incident but reportedly stayed in the game and had not been placed on the injured list as of Tuesday morning, though his status bears monitoring. Game 2 of the three-game series at Busch Stadium is set for 7:45 p.m. Eastern on Cardinals.TV and Padres.TV, with Michael King (4-5, 3.46 ERA) going for San Diego against Cardinals starter Antonio Pallante (7-4, 3.88 ERA).
Away from baseball, the week's outdoor forecast carries a significant public safety warning. A Beach Hazards Statement is in effect through Friday evening, June 19, for all San Diego County coastal areas. South and southwest swells of 3 to 6 feet, with sets reaching 7 feet, are generating high rip current risk and strong longshore currents. Lifeguards have made approximately 270 rescues along county beaches since Sunday. Water temperatures range from 65 to 70 degrees. Anyone who is not a strong swimmer is urged to stay out of the water; those who do visit the beach should swim only within sight of a lifeguard tower.
Inland, Tuesday brings clouds through mid-morning clearing to mostly sunny skies by the afternoon, with a high near 75 degrees and northwest winds of 5 to 10 miles per hour gusting to 20. A cooling trend arrives Thursday and Friday, with Juneteenth Thursday seeing a high near 72 degrees and Friday night lows dipping to around 62. No rain is expected through the weekend.
Looking ahead on the civic calendar: the Vista Detention Facility public forum runs tonight from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Encinitas Community Center; Thursday is Juneteenth, a federal and state holiday; and San Diego Fire-Rescue officials are actively urging residents to attend professional fireworks shows rather than use backyard or illegal fireworks ahead of July 4th, with three wildfires already linked to fireworks in recent weeks across the county. The Genasys Protect app is the recommended tool for monitoring fire risk by neighborhood.
