Overview
- Jake Cronenworth’s two-out single in the bottom of the 10th inning scored Jackson Merrill to lift the Padres to a 3-2 win over the Rangers.
- San Diego loaded the bases after intentionally walking Manny Machado and on Gavin Sheets’ single, and despite Robert Garcia’s strikeout of Bryce Johnson, Cronenworth delivered the decisive hit.
- Adrian Morejon pitched a scoreless top of the 10th inning, inducing back-to-back flyouts to strand two Rangers runners and earn the victory.
- Both starters—Randy Vasquez for San Diego and Kumar Rocker for Texas—allowed two runs over six and 5⅓ innings without factoring into the decision.
- Earlier in the game, Manny Machado’s 440-foot homer and Fernando Tatis Jr.’s sixth-inning triple set up Luis Arraez’s RBI single to force extra innings.
