PADRES POSTCAST: San Diego Padres EXPLODE LATE, Pound Pittsburgh Pirates 8-2 Behind Michael King

The San Diego Padres take down the Pittsburgh Pirates 8-2, continuing their dominance — now winning 13 of their last 15 against Pittsburgh.   This game was scoreless through six innings before the Padres exploded for four runs in the 7th inning, the clear turning point. The Pirates answered with two in the bottom half, but San Diego held the line thanks to huge defensive plays by Ramon Laureano.   Michael King earns his first win of the season, battling through traffic and getting help from back-to-back double plays early. Jake Cronenworth delivered the big swing with a 2-run homer, and the Padres added insurance late, including an RBI from Fernando Tatis Jr..   The Pirates committed three costly errors, and the Padres capitalized, out-hitting them 10-6.   Mason Miller slammed the door in the 9th with dominant stuff in his hometown.   📊 Final: Padres 8, Pirates 2 ⚾ Padres back to .500   👇 Biggest moment — the 7th inning surge or Laureano’s defense?   #Padres #MLB #Baseball #SanDiegoPadres Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
