Jackson Merrill hit another 9th inning home run to help the Padres to a 6-2, come-from-behind win over the Marlins in Miami.
Some players are wired for the biggest moments. Michael Jordan was. Patrick Mahomes is. They just get better when the stakes are higher.The Padres rookie added another chapter to the story of what is becoming a borderline legendary rookie season in Miami on Friday night, launching a solo home run in the 9th inning to spark a 10-inning, 6-2 win over the Marlins and keep the Friars in control of the National League Wild Card race.
Jake Cronenworth hit a ground ball up the middle. Tyler Wade broke for home and beat the throw with a headfirst dive, slamming his face into the dirt as he avoided the tag to score the go-ahead run. Wade emerged with a bloody nose, something he'll tell you is a small price to pay for a win. The Friars piled on when Machado doubled home two more and Merrill dropped a single to left to score Manny and make it 6-2. Former Marlin Tanner Scott got through the bottom half with no damage done, giving the Padres their 6th straight win.
The Padres can win the series on Saturday afternoon. If they do it would be their 7th straight series win since the All-Star break.
