4-2 Padres bottom of the 9th, Dodgers have bases runners at 1st and 2nd none out. Robert Suarez is on the verge of blowing yet another save having already given up 3 straight hits.
The ball is hit sharply to Manny who gets the ball and runs back to 3rd, then swings the ball around the horn for a Triple play. And that play clinches a playoff berth for the Padres. Wonder if that has ever happened, a triple play that clinches a playoff berth, probably not. Hell of an ending!
That was nuts, what a play. I love both Ohtani and Mookie but it would be kind of fun to see the Dodgers lose the division en route to another early exit.
Knowing you, I am 99% sure this comment is tongue-in-cheek, but in case it's not they did it last year.
What they did not do last year is have a positive run differential against every AL East team. (They tied with Tampa Bay 48 RS, 48 RA.) Unless the next two games against NYY go real bad, they will do that this year.
