How did Jace Bowen’s big‑league debut impact the Padres in the series opener?

Ben Fadden 0:00
All right, Padres they dropped the series opener to the Phillies by a score of three to two. Jace Bowen makes his big league debut. did get his first big league hit, but And the other at bats didn't look so great. But it really was like a hey, welcome to the big leagues. Here you go, Arenola, right out of the gate, and then you wander on. In that ninth inning, here you go. I mean Durant just threw him the same pitch. Every single throw. Like Shocker. And I mean, if it's working, you keep doing it, right? And that's what we just saw seconds ago in that bone at bat. Just breaking ball. Make it look like maybe it's gonna be a strike on the outside part of the plate and then Dive outside. Frustrating. Gavin Cheats did Homer in this game, but of course
Ben Fadden 0:58
You can guarantee it.

What were the key moments that led to the Phillies’ 3‑2 win over San Diego?

Ben Fadden 0:59
Every series it's gonna be either Schwarber or Harper Will Homer against the Padres. Or both Wilhelm. We'll see if Schwarber does at some point in this series, but Bryce got it out of the way. First game. Pretty early on in the game. Um That one tied it up and then the Phillies did add on. in the sort of the game winning run in the sixth inning, less glamorous obviously, than the the Homer that Bryce hit. Just a a ground ball. But Estrada was in the game there. It was a single through the right side. And then some manufactured. a manufactured run there. From the Phillies. Um Nola only went five innings in this game. By some of the swings, you would think that Nola would have went Seven or eight innings in this game.
Ben Fadden 1:52
Um, but he goes five, a couple of burned runs, but he didn't walk anyone, but he struck out eight guys. Gavin Sheets did get him, but I don't think Gavin Sheets I don't think even put a barrel on that. I don't think that was a great swing. I don't think that was great contact. He kind of went down and got it. It reminded me of the Schwarber kind of the Schwarber home run that he hit back at Peko last week against the Padres. Not as egregious, but It was kinda like that doesn't that didn't seem like that was an ace wing. And still headed out. Um Encouraging From Tatis was before we get to the really bad part. Um he went three for four tonight. So he just had a thirteen game line base streak and now we're seeing him continue to
Ben Fadden 2:45
Get hits in games and the Ophers are now Becoming the rare occurrence instead of what's happening every day. Um, so that has been great to see. What was really not great to see though was

Why did the Padres’ base‑running mistakes in the 8th inning cost them the game?

Ben Fadden 3:00
In the eighth inning. This dude just Forgot what situation it was. Three two count. Two outs. And a hard chopper gonna beat the throw, bone doesn't throw it. Nando obviously thought that Boehm was gonna throw it to first 'cause he was just going to 'cause he there maybe 'cause he thought maybe there's two outs in the inning, so I'm just going to keep running to third. I'm not even going to look. I'm just gonna keep running the third base. And if you know And oh her safe, now I get to be a third. But it's the big leaks. Album. He's had experience at he's been there for years. He's got experience. He's struggled and he's learned from it. And Hump fakes happen in the pig leagues. They're smart. If you're not gonna get at get a guy at first base
Ben Fadden 3:56
And you know that Nando's at first base running to second, he's an aggressive base runner. Your pump fake. You don't throw it. You act like you're gonna throw. You don't. And then maybe you can get him at second, and that's what ends up happening. He just throws it over there. And then Nando looks like an idiot. Um It's unacceptable. You can say, Well, I like the aggression. And this was the one time that You know, boom. Wouldn't have thrown it over there. You know, unlucky, whatever you want to say. No. In that situation You take one base. It's two outs in the inning. You've got Jackson Merrill on deck. I know Jackson that night then and there he struck out on a ball that's at his eyes. But Still, you have the five hitter up.
Ben Fadden 4:48
A guy that can do damage. And even if it was Freddie Fermin up at the plate. You still keep the inning going. You don't round second base with like It seemed like he wasn't even Thinking about
