San Diego Padres rookie Joey Lucchesi could have been down for the count after Ryon Healy's comebacker glanced off the big left-hander's glove and then hit him in the groin. Lucchesi, though, grabbed the ball and threw out Healy, took a few steps and then went down in a heap. But after being checked by the training staff, he got up, walked it off, threw a few warmup pitches and stayed in the game, striking out Kyle Seager and Mike Zunino to end the fourth inning. "It hurt, for sure, but not enough to where I couldn't play anymore," Lucchesi (7-7) said after striking out nine in a career-best 6 2/3 innings to lead the Padres to an 8-3 win against the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday for a two-game sweep. read more http://www.espn.com/mlb/recap?gameId=380829125
