The veteran third baseman expressed confidence that his performance would improve soon despite his current analytical metrics showing a minus-5.53 Run Expectancy (RE24) according to Baseball-Reference.

"It's coming," said Machado. "I'm a click away.

Just need one to fall. They'll start coming."

Phillies starting pitcher Jesus Luzardo earned the win by throwing six scoreless innings and scattering five hits, despite facing an early threat from the San Diego lineup.

"It was a great visit at the time," said Luzardo. "He came out and was like, 'Just limit the damage.
