Trevor Story homered in his first at-bat on Wednesday, his fourth longball in three major-league games, helping the Rockies defeat the Diamondbacks, 4-3. Story became the first player in modern baseball history - that is, since 1900 - to hit at least four home runs in his first three major-league games. He's also the first player since 1900 whose first four hits in the majors were home runs.
The Dodgers blanked the Padres 7-0 on Wednesday for their third consecutive shutout to open the season. Los Angeles is the second team in major-league history to shut out its opponent in each of its first three games of a season, joining the 1963 Cardinals, who shut out the Mets twice and the Philles once to begin their campaign.
Ian Browne @IanMBrowne If tonight is postponed, Aug. 15 is the likely makeup date.
Tim Britton @TimBritton Which would mean a four-city road trip and a stretch of 23 straight days without one off. Not ideal.

Ouch!
The Padres opened the season by being swept at home by the Dodgers by a combined score of 25-0 (lost 15-0, 3-0, 7-0).
