Jagger Haynes pitched effectively in the win. The lefty went six innings and allowed two earned runs. He struck out six and did not walk a batter. Haynes is showing improved command, and that is a very good thing for the Padres. He may reach his ceiling if he continues to pound the zone effectively.
