Nick Pivetta gave up back-to-back home runs in the bottom of the 5th inning, the offense was dominated by the Cubs’ bullpen, and the San Diego Padres dropped Game 1 of the NL Wild Card Series 3-1 to the Chicago Cubs in the Windy City. Only 1 Padre reached base after the 4th inning, as the Cubs’ bullpen retired the last 14 San Diego hitters. Xander Bogaerts’ RBI double in the 2nd scored Jackson Merrill with the lone Pads’ run. The Pads now face elimination tomorrow. ***** ‘LIVE’ Instant Post-Game Reaction from Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber ——- The Pads and Cubs play game 2 tomorrow at Wrigley Field in Chi-Town, with 1st pitch set for 12:08pm PT.

Fernando Tatis Jr., Xander Bogaerts and Elias Diaz hit home runs, Ace Michael King worked 2 2/3 solid innings in his final playoff tuneup, all 4 key relievers- Jeremiah Estrada, Adrian Morejon, Mason Miller and Robert Suarez- and the San Diego Padres took their 2nd straight game from the Arizona Diamondbacks, winning 5-1 and moving within a game of a 90-win season. Tatis Jr. led off the home half of the 1st inning with a monster shot into the basket of the upper deck in left field. Arraez followed with a single, and Bogaerts launched a 2-run shot almost exactly where Fernando hit his to make it 3-0 Padres after just the 1st 3 hitters of the game. Elias Diaz smashed a 2-run shot of his own- a line drive bullet over the left-field wall- to make it 5-0 in the 2nd inning. Yuki Matsui (3-1) pitched 2 1/3 innings in back of King, picking up the win in spite of allowing the only D'Backs' only run of the game, a solo home run off the bat of Geraldo Perdomo in the 5th to make it 5-1. Morejon, (6th inning) Miller, (7th) Estrada (8th) and Suarez (9th) finished it off from there. Miller and Estrada both struck the side. The Pads open up their best-of-3 National Wild Card Series at Wrigley Field against the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday. (start time TBD) Nick Pivetta (13-5, 2.87 ERA) will most likely start the opener for San Diego. Diaz, who has been Pivetta's personal catcher this season, left today's game in the 4th inning after apparently hurting his side on a check-swing attempt. ***** ‘LIVE’ Instant Post-Game Reaction from Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber ——- The Pads wrap up this 3-game series with the 2025 regular season finale tomorrow vs the D’Backs at Petco Park, with 1st pitch at 12:10pm PT. LHP JP Sears (8-11, 5.12 ERA -> 1-2, 6.16 ERA for SD) will take the mound for the Pads. The D'Backs will finish it off with RHP Brandon Pfaadt.

Fernando Tatis Jr. crushed a grand slam home run in the bottom of the 4th inning- right after Ryan O’Hearn’s RBI single- to give the Padres a 5-2 lead, Yu Darvish settled down after giving up 2 early home runs, Mason Miller bailed out Kyle Hart, David Morgan and Mike Shildt after a pair of bases-loaded walks in the 8th and picked up a 4-out save, and the San Diego Padres survived the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-4 and eliminate them from playoff contention in the opener of the final series of the season, in front of another sellout crowd at Petco Park. Jackson Merrill’s 2-out single knocked in Luis Arraez- who had just ripped a 2-out double to cap a 4-hit night- to push the Pads’ lead to 7-4. The D’Backs scored 2 runs- on NO hits- in the 8th inning, sending 8 hitters to the plate. Kyle Hart and David Morgan walked 5 hitters combined before Mike Shildt (finally) brought in Miller, who struck out Jorge Barrosa on a full-count pitch. The Padres trailed 2-0 entering the bottom of the 4th, on solo homers by Ketel Marte (1st inning) and Jake McCarthy (3rd inning) off Darvish. (win, 5-5) Yu went 5 innings, giving up those 2 earned runs on 6 hits while striking out 4 and walking 2. Arraez- the 3-time batting champion- pushed his MLB-longest hitting-streak to 14 games. Xander Bogaerts and Gavin Sheets chipped in 2 hits apiece for the Padres. Tatis Jr. struck out 3 times in his return from the illness that kept him out of the lineup for the entire series against the Milwaukee Brewers. Miller’s save gives him 22 on the season. Bradgley Rodriguez and Wandy Peralta each pitched a scoreless inning for the Padres. The Padres will play the Chicago Cubs in the wild card round of the NL Playoffs starting Tuesday. ***** ‘LIVE’ Instant Post-Game Reaction from Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber ——- The Pads and Diamondbacks play the 2nd game of this 3-game series tomorrow at Petco Park, with 1st pitch at 5:40pm PT.

Host Javier Reyes analyzes the silver lining of Jackson Merrill's standout play, Dylan Cease's possibly too-little-too-late improvements, and the impact of Ramon Laureano's fractured finger on the team's postseason aspirations. The discussion shifts to a look at The Athletic's postseason rotation rankings with the Padres and their likely opponent, the Chicago Cubs, receiving a majority of the analysis.

Ryan O’Hearn broke the game open with a tie-breaking 3-run double to spark a 4-run 6th inning, and the San Diego Padres moved closer to making the playoffs for a 2nd straight year, beating the Chicago White Sox 7-3 on the road to even the series at a game apiece after the ChiSox beat their former teammate Dylan Cease last night. O’Hearn’s double to left field in the 6th came after San Diego took advantage of 3 wild pitches and 3 walks while chasing White Sox starter Yoendrys Gómez (3-3). Fernando Tatis Jr. got the go-ahead rally started with a leadoff single and scored from 3rd when Manny Machado knocked Gómez out of the game with a game-tying single. Fraser Ellard then walked 3 of the 5 Pads’ hitters he faced and gave up the go-ahead hit- O’Hearn’s double- making it 5-2. Jackson Merrill homered leading off the 2nd inning, former White Sox player Gavin Sheets padded the Pads’ lead with an RBI single in the 8th, and Luis Arraez singled in another run in the 9th to finish up the scoring for San Diego. Pads’ starter Yu Darvish lasted just 4 2/3 innings, giving up 2 runs on 6 hits and continuing a run of subpar starting pitching for the Padres. Dylan Cease was ripped yesterday, Michael King and Randy Vasquez were both tagged by the Mets in their last starts. Adrian Morejon (13-5) threw 1 1/3 innings of scoreless relief to pick up the win. Jeremiah Estrada and Mason Miller each worked a perfect inning, striking out 2 hitters apiece. Robert Suarez gave up a solo home run to Lenyn Sosa in the 9th before closing it out for San Diego. O'Hearn had 3 hits and 3 RBI’s, Merrill had 2 hits and scored 3 runs, Freddy Fermin had 2 hits and Fernando scored twice to lead the Padres’ offense. The Pads had some success against Gómez, the Chicago starter, scoring 3 runs on 6 hits in 5 1/3 innings. The win snaps a 2-game losing streak for the Padres, (84-71) who now sit 4 games behind the LA Dodgers in the NL West race with 7 games left. They are currently in the 2nd wild card spot, 4 games behind the 1st-place Chicago Cubs and 4 games ahead of the 3rd-place New York Mets. The Dodgers beat the San Francisco Giants tonight. The Cubs and Mets both lost. It’s looking like the Pads will be right back in Chicago in less than 2 weeks to play the Cubs in the NL Wild Card opening round. The White Sox lost for the 7th time in 8 games, with the only win coming against Cease and the Pads last night. ***** ‘LIVE’ Instant Post-Game Reaction from Jim “GRIES” Grieshaber ——- The Padres and White Sox play the 3rd and final game of this series tomorrow in Chicago, with 1st pitch set for 11:10am PT.
