00:00We have ourselves a rubber match here at Nationals Park.
00:04Padres, Nationals complete their three-game set.
00:06Yeah, making that 20th start of the season.
00:083.02 ERA, can he get under three today?
00:11I think he can. He's got to stay on the attack.
00:12Big thing for Mackenzie Gore today.
00:14That is ball four. Misses with the fastball, and he walks Fernando.
00:17Get off walk, and Luisa Ryze, standing in the two spot.
00:20Line to left center field, and in for a base hit for Ryze.
00:23Two strikes, never a problem for Luisa Ryze, and he's aboard.
00:26First two Padres have reached here in the first inning.
00:28First and second, nobody out.
00:29You've got to take advantage here early to Mackenzie Gore.
00:31One of those situations where if you don't get to him early,
00:33you may not get to him at all if he settles in.
00:36Pitch seven coming up here with Tatis at second and a rise at first.
00:39And Machado will take ball four.
00:41Two walks in the inning.
00:42Bases loaded, nobody out in the Padres' first inning.
00:45Gore wanted that one, but it did appear to be down.
00:47It's a very good opportunity here for the Padres to get off
00:49on a good foot here against Mackenzie Gore.
00:52Bogart slips one to left field.
00:53Lyle going back, still going to the wall.
00:55It is gone!
00:57Grand slam!
00:58Boogie goes boom!
00:59Xander Bogart to the grand slam of the first inning.
01:02Padres lead it 4-0.
01:04What a way to start a beautiful Sunday afternoon in the nation's capital.
01:08How about those Padres?
01:09There's just the first out on the 22nd pitch of his first inning for Mackenzie Gore.
01:13He can find his bearings here after giving up the grand slam.
01:16Now a ladder to left field, and that's in for a head.
01:18Off the bat of Iglesias.
01:19He's headed for second base.
01:20Lyle will get it back in, but it's a double for Iglesias.
01:23And the hits continue for the Padres here in the first inning.
01:25That's a big run out there.
01:27Jose Iglesias at second base.
01:28Now Jay Cronenworth, that's out of the 7th spot, getting the start at second base.
01:32On the ground, a fair ball in the left field.
01:34Iglesias coming around from second base.
01:36He will score.
01:37Padres take a 5-0 lead.
01:39Cronenworth driving in Iglesias.
01:41Back-to-back doubles here.
01:42That's that big run I was just talking about.
01:44Now a handful of runs for San Diego.
01:46What a way to start a ball game.
01:47Nick Pavetta's been waiting a while, but he doesn't mind.
01:49Yeah, he's been quality all year long, and cannot wait to get out there with that 5-run lead
01:54and the bottom of the first.
01:55That is in there for strike three.
01:56There's that good curveball for strikeout of the day for Nick Pavetta.
01:59High heat and the yakker.
02:01Where does it start?
02:01Where does it end up?
02:02Oh, yeah.
02:03He landed that one perfectly.
02:04Two down Garcia at first for Nathaniel Lowe.
02:07Swing and a slow chase to a high fastball.
02:09Second strikeout of the inning for Pavetta.
02:11And that's all for the Nats in the bottom of the first inning.
02:13Gore trying to bounce back here.
02:15He strikes out Tatis, gets a rise to fly out, and then bring up Manny Machado.
02:19That's ball four.
02:20Second time, he's walked Machado.
02:22Third walk allowed by Gore.
02:24He's got to deal with Xander Bogarts, who hit the grand slam last day.
02:26There's a line drive.
02:27Base hit into left field for Bogarts.
02:28He's two for two.
02:29Machado takes second base.
02:31Xander, stay hot.
02:32So third out proving elusive here at the top of the second inning.
02:35Two-out walk and a two-out hit brings in Gavin Sheets.
02:37Rutledge and Lara both walking around up there in that Nats bullpen.
02:40Gavin Sheets in this spot with two outs and runners in scoring position at 316.
02:43Line and up off the top of the glove of Abrams into center.
02:47Round from second comes Machado.
02:48Padres will take a 6-0 lead.
02:50Gavin Sheets joining the hit parade.
02:52Well, Abrams tries to time this one off the webbing of the glove.
02:57It's a six-pack up there for San Diego.
02:58Jake and RBI double to make it 5-0.
03:00His only other time up.
03:01That was back in the first inning.
03:02Takes it to left again and a fair ball down the left field line.
03:06Cronenworth heading to second base again.
03:08His second double of the day.
03:09Same general area.
03:10Should we change the crone zone, Donnie?
03:12We might, yes.
03:13Is the crone zone moving over there?
03:14Like beyond third base now?
03:15Could be.
03:16Infield in for their number nine hitter, Diaz, who popped up to short center.
03:19Garcia caught it first time.
03:21This is down the line in left field.
03:23It is back and it is gone.
03:25Elias Diaz connects on his fifth home run of the year.
03:28Padres take an 8-0 lead.
03:29Padres getting their hacks in on this Sunday.
03:32Oh, it's a fastball in and he cleans it out.
03:34No doubt about this one.
03:35Padres got a snowman up there in that R column.
03:37That is going to do it.
03:39Miguel Cairo headed out there to make the change.
03:41Mackenzie Gore weathers the storm 75 pitches.
03:44And eight runs later, he leaves this game.
03:4711 in a row now retired by Pavetta.
03:49Two down here in the fifth.
03:50It's only phase two over the minimum up to this point for Nick Pavetta.
03:53Have a day.
03:54Stay hot.
03:54Keep going.
03:55Here's Riley Adams with two down.
03:56A high drive.
03:57Well hit right center field for Adams.
03:59Johnson to the warning track.
04:00Near the wall.
04:01Feeling for the wall.
04:01This one over his head and it's gone.
04:03It's in and out of the seats of the first row and opposite field.
04:05And the Nationals are on the board.
04:09Adams fifth homer makes it eight to one.
04:11That one just carried out.
04:13Bob the big out of town scoreboard right center field.
04:15A San Diego native homers against his hometown team.
04:18Here comes Jackson Rutledge now.
04:19He's got in the Nats eight outs, 47 pitches.
04:22Here's Machado who's had a no contact day.
04:24Three walks.
04:24This is in the air to left center field.
04:26Pretty deep.
04:26Back goes Young at the wall.
04:28It's off the wall.
04:29And the caribou is nasty.
04:30Machado will head into second base and pull it up there.
04:33He's got himself a wall ball double.
04:35Fourth time Machado has been on today.
04:37Really Rutledge is doing a yeoman's work here.
04:39Getting up over 50 pitches.
04:40We mentioned his season high 63.
04:42This kind of turned back a clock to his starter days.
04:44He's trying to get this game through the middle innings.
04:46Lifted high in the air to left.
04:48Dalen Lyle is all over it.
04:49Waiting.
04:50All over it.
04:50Waiting.
04:51Court left center.
04:52Lyle pulls it in for the out.
04:53That's the inning.
04:53No runs.
04:54One hit.
04:54Eight to one.
04:55Padres have the lead.
04:56Pavetta back on the mound.
04:5775 pitches deep through the first five.
04:59Two outs wood at first.
05:00And Nathaniel Lowe went after the first pitch and driving it to left field.
05:04Sheets goes back onto the warning track to make the catch.
05:08That will end the inning.
05:09Might be the outing for Pavetta.
05:10We'll see.
05:11It's eight one.
05:11Padres.
05:12Ryan Hoeing has come on to pitch after Nick Pavetta went sixth.
05:16He allowed one run on the Adams homer in the fifth inning.
05:18Three hits.
05:19A walk in.
05:19Five strikeouts.
05:20Nick threw only 87 pitches.
05:2260 of which were strikes.
05:23The first thing you want to see here is Hoeing walks of people with a seven run lead.
05:26Puts two on here for the Nats.
05:27Passing gives Jacob Young a chance.
05:29Crowd ball right side.
05:30Ranging is Cronenworth.
05:31And he bobbles in and boots it.
05:33It's an error.
05:34Loads the bases for the Nationals.
05:36Nobody is more upset right now than Jake Cronenworth.
05:39The play he should have made.
05:40He'd say that himself.
05:41Single walk.
05:42And now an E4.
05:43Have the bases loaded for the Nationals with two down.
05:45And the big guy's coming up.
05:46Abrams swings.
05:47Sends it in the air to left field.
05:48Sheets backing up towards the corner.
05:50He's got plenty of room.
05:51And with grass beneath his feet, he makes the catch.
05:53And the bases are left loaded.
05:55And now Jacob back out there for another inning of relief.
05:58He pitched the eighth and back out there trying to finish it off here in the ninth.
06:00Padres with a seven run lead on top eight to one.
06:03Hugging the line.
06:04It's going to be called a fair ball.
06:06Ball will bounce softly out in front of Sheets.
06:08And Paul DeJong will grab a two for four day after striking out and hitting a fly ball.
06:12Nicely done right here for Paul DeJong.
06:14Two down in the ninth with DeJong at second base.
06:17Grounded back to Jacob.
06:18He will run a little bit.
06:19Flips underhanded for the out.
06:20That ends the ball game.
06:21So the Padres win this one, a final of eight to one.
06:24They win the series as a result, taking two out of three from the Nationals.
06:28And a good way to start this lengthy road trip.
06:30The first leg of this three-city tour comes to an end.
06:32And a big day for Xander Bogarts.
06:34And, of course, the Grand Slam back in the first inning.
06:35Thank you.
