San Diego takes NL West lead

According to the Associated Press, "[Chris] Young pitched one-hit ball for seven shutout innings to lead the San Diego Padres to a 6-1 win over the Boston Red Sox, and Khalil Greene homered twice off Wakefield and Josh Bard added a contested homer against his old team... The Padres snapped a three-game losing streak and leapfrogged the Los Angeles Dodgers back into first place in the tight NL West, two percentage points in front of Arizona."

So the Padres are currently atop the NL West. How long can they hang onto this lead?

This NL West is gonna be funny to watch. Two days ago, the Padres took the division lead. Now they're in third place, a game behind Arizona and half a game behind the second place Dodgers. Apparently the answer to my "How long can they hang onto this lead?" inquiry is, "not very long."

And now, San Diego's back in first place again after taking two of the first three against the Dodgers this weekend.
