Peavy’s 16 Ks Not Enough, as Padres Take It Rookie drills walk-off homer after Peavy fans 9 in a row By J. Kelman Posted Apr 26, 2007 10:36 AM CDT Copied San Diego Padres pitcher Jake Peavy follows through against the Arizona Diamondbacks during the second inning of a baseball game, Wednesday, April 25, 2007, at Chase Field in Phoenix. (AP Photo/Matt York) (Associated Press) Stephen Drew stole the spotlight from Jake Peavy, connecting on a two-run walk-off homer off Trevor Hoffman in the ninth inning as the Diamondbacks upended the Padres 3-2. The rookie’s blast off of the future Hall of Famer overshadowed a historic effort from Peavy, who tied a career high in fanning 16 D-Backs. The Alabama native's seven shutout innings inlcuded nine Ks in a row, one shy of the Major League record. But in the end, it was Drew who got the last laugh. His first homer of the year made a winner of Tony Pena, who relieved reigning N.L. Cy Young winner Brandon Webb after eight strong innings. Read These Next Rudy Giuliani has 'some healing to do.'
