What Happened

The game is tied late between the San Diego Padres and Milwaukee Brewers. The Brewers have the tying run on second base and Christian Yelich on first as relief pitcher Craig Stammen takes the mound for the Padres. Stammen gets the ground ball he needs, with catcher Austin Nola firing the ball to first baseman Eric Hosmer to record the second out. Hosmer, thinking he has caught the final out, begins to celebrate, but the ball bounces out of his glove. Shortstop Manny Machado, seeing the opportunity, quickly scoops up the loose ball and fires it towards Hosmer, but the throw is off the mark. Padres star Fernando Tatis Jr. celebrates in the background as the Brewers narrowly avoid the final out. Stammen, unfazed, gets the next batter out to secure the victory for the Padres. Catcher Luis Mejia, who hit a home run earlier in the game, his first of the season, is pumped up about the win. Tatis playfully goes to "beat him up" over the home run. Pitching coach Larry Rothschild congratulates the team, telling them not to worry about Hosmer's miscue, as they got the job done. Hosmer comes off the field looking frustrated, realizing his mistake. Mejia gives him a look, seemingly questioning how he could have dropped that final out. Despite the sloppy ending, the Padres hold on for the narrow victory over their divisional rival Brewers.
