from Locked On Padres - Daily Podcast On The San Diego Padres · host Jim Gries Grieshaber
The San Diego Padres refused to go away — and pulled off another wild comeback when they absolutely needed it.Trailing the Washington Nationals 4-1 entering the bottom of the eighth inning, San Diego exploded for four runs to steal a dramatic 5-4 victory, win the series and keep pace in the National League Wild Card race after the Arizona Diamondbacks had already won.Manny Machado delivered the biggest at-bat of the night, battling through an eight-pitch plate appearance before ripping a two-run single up the middle to tie the game 4-4. After Ty France followed with a single, Luis Campusano dropped in the go-ahead RBI single, scoring Machado and completing the comeback.The Padres had been held scoreless through six innings and managed just one run in the seventh before Washington pushed the lead back to three on Andrés Chaparro's eighth-inning home run. But the Nationals bullpen unraveled in the bottom half, including three consecutive walks from Jake Simpson without recording an out, and San Diego made Washington pay.The victory gives the Padres their 11th comeback win of the season when trailing by three runs or more and adds another dramatic one-run victory to a growing list of late-game wins.We break down Machado's monster moment, Campusano's game-winner, the four-run eighth, Casey Mize's start, the decision to bring Randy Vásquez into a bases-on situation, Washington's bullpen collapse, and what the win means for San Diego in the Wild Card race.Padres 5, Nationals 4. Another comeback. Another one-run win. And another huge September victory.#Padres #SanDiegoPadres #MLB #MannyMachado #LuisCampusano #PadresBaseball #MLBPlayoffs #WildCardRace #Nationals🎙️ Padres Postcast with Host Jim "Gries" GrieshaberThe Padres and Nationals play game 3 of their 3-game series tomorrow at Petco, with 1st pitch set for 1:10 PT.We will be here right after every game with your PADRES POSTCAST, hosted by Jim "Gries" Grieshaber.——-Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!AmazonThis Back To School Season, spend less on your kids, with Amazon.

The San Diego Padres refused to go away — and pulled off another wild comeback when they absolutely needed it. Trailing the Washington Nationals 4-1 entering the bottom of the eighth inning, San Diego exploded for four runs to steal a dramatic 5-4 victory, win the series and keep pace in the National League Wild Card race after the Arizona Diamondbacks had already won. Manny Machado delivered the biggest at-bat of the night, battling through an eight-pitch plate appearance before ripping a two-run single up the middle to tie the game 4-4. After Ty France followed with a single, Luis Campusano dropped in the go-ahead RBI single, scoring Machado and completing the comeback. The Padres had been held scoreless through six innings and managed just one run in the seventh before Washington pushed the lead back to three on Andrés Chaparro's eighth-inning home run. But the Nationals bullpen unraveled in the bottom half, including three consecutive walks from Jake Simpson without recording an out, and San Diego made Washington pay. The victory gives the Padres their 11th comeback win of the season when trailing by three runs or more and adds another dramatic one-run victory to a growing list of late-game wins.
