Padres Welcome Back Melvin Then Outlast Giants in Extra Innings
Manager Bob Melvin returned to the Padres dugout on Friday night. He had missed a week after having successful prostate surgery. The Friars celebrated their skipper's return in the best possible way, it just took a little longer than they hoped.
San Diego beat the Giants 8-7 in 10 innings in San Francisco, guaranteeing a winning record on their 9-game road trip. The Friars got four runs in the 3rd inning. Jorge Alfaro doubled home Trent Grisham and scored on a 2-run homer from Jake Cronenworth. Then Manny Machado made something happen. The all-world 3rd baseman singled and tried to steal 2nd base. Eric Hosmer grounded out to shortstop, but with the shift on nobody was covering 3rd base so Manny kept chugging around to take an extra base.
That heads up display bought San Diego a run. Jakob Junis threw a breaking ball in the dirt, it skipped to the backstop and Machado was able to come home and make it a 4-1 Padres lead.
