SAN DIEGO (AP) — Jake Cronenworth singled in Xander Bogaerts with two outs in the ninth inning and the San Diego Padres beat the San Francisco Giants 6-5 on Saturday night for their seventh win in eight games.
The Padres remained a game back of the third NL wild-card spot.
The Padres had to rally after Osleivis Basabe, a late replacement for MLB batting leader Luis Arraez, hit a two-run double off All-Star Mason Miller with two outs in the eighth to tie it at 5.
Xander Bogaerts hit a leadoff double off Dylan Smith (0-3) and was sacrificed by Freddy Fermin. With two outs, Fernando Tatis Jr. was intentionally walked before Cronenworth singled to center.
Miller (4-1) got the win as well as his first blown save.
