Corbin Carroll had a three hit night, Eugenio Suarez and Gabriel Moreno homered, and the bullpen was light outs in a 4-3 victory
In a playoff-like atmosphere at Petco Park, the Padres had the tying run on second base with two outs in the 9th. The 2-2 pitch from Paul Sewald to Jake Cronenworth appeared to be off the plate, but home plate umpire Charlie Ramos called it a strike to end the game.
Ginkel ended up getting the win by recording four outs. His record in relief is now 5-1 and after a rough start to his season he's lowered his ERA to 3.65. Sewald is now a perfect seven for seven in save chances and has a 0.87 ERA. "I hit some balls up and in, so that was fun. I've been working real hard there... I need to do it a lot more, so lets keep rolling." With the three hits, Carroll raised his average to .201 and OPS to .575.
He entered the 5th inning with 72 pitches and as we've seen so many times, his early inning 97 MPH fastball became 92-93. He gave up a leadoff homer to Kyle Higashioka on a 92 MPH fastball up and int that the Padres catcher yanked down the line just inside the foul pole.
