    Bobby Abreu was annoyed by lack of speed in Odrisamer Despaigne's curveball and playfully decided to complain to plate umpire Chris Guccione.

    "It was the highlight of the day," Padres catcher Yasmani Grandal said. "He looked back at the umpire and said we were cheating, and the umpire started laughing."

    Despaigne came within four outs of the first no-hitter in San Diego's 46-year major league history on Sunday, and the Padres beat the New York Mets 2-1 on Seth Smith's run-scoring infield single in the ninth.
