CLEVELAND — After two days without a game, the Padres played two games within one day.
Four outs from completing a doubleheader sweep and what would have been the most successful long road trip since their inaugural season, they instead settled for a split and a 6-2 finish to their 10-day trek.
The doubleheader against the Guardians at cold and damp Progressive Field began with a strong return by Mike Clevinger, saw rookie MacKenzie push further than he had before in the second game and didn’t go entirely the Padres’ way in part because of some of their former players.
