May 23, 2022 (San Diego) – The Padres are finally home after a successful road trip to host the Brewers. Adrian Houser started tonight’s game one against Nick Martinez.
The Brewers started the scoring in the second with Tyrone Taylor’s two-RBI double and Milwaukee led 2-0 after two.
The Padres fought to get on the board in the fifth when Jorge Alfaro hit a sac groundout to score Luke Voit from third. The Brewers still kept a 2-1 lead after five.
Trent Grisham tied the game in the seventh with a squeeze bunt that scored Wil Myers from third and we were tied at two after seven. The Padres blew a huge walkoff opportunity in the ninth, so we went to extras.
Luckily, the Padres avoided a close call from the Brewers in the top of the 10th and in the bottom of the 10th, Jose Azocar singled on a looper to center to score Manny Machado and the Padres walked it off in game one for a 3-2 win.
