El Cajon native Joe Musgrove allows one hit in seven innings as Padres blow out Mets in Game 3 of wild-card series
fan and now one of the team’s starting pitchers and voices and leaders, became the first pitcher in major league history to pitch seven innings while allowing fewer than two hits in a win-or-go-home game. Along the way, he endured the indignity of having his ears rubbed in front of some 40,000 people and a national television audience.The Padres will keep playing.
The Padres haven’t played much postseason baseball. This was just the seventh season to be followed by them being in the playoffs and just their 11series. But significant on this day is that they are 3-0 in win-or-go-home games, having won Game 5 of the NL Championship Series in 1984 and Game 3 in the 2020 wild-card series against the Cardinals.On Sunday, they were facing Mets right-hander Chris Bassitt, who they beat twice in the regular season.
During the interruption, Musgrove had mostly smirked. He didn’t look happy, but neither did he appear unsettled. Musgrove walked Francisco Lindor to start the seventh before first baseman Wil Myers made his third fine defensive play for the first out of the inning, Alonso lined out to right field and Jeff McNeil grounded out.
Ha-Seong Kim turned a 1-2 deficit into a walk, and Bassitt seemed to want no part of Grisham as he walked him on five pitches to load the bases and bring up Austin Nola.
