How did Cronenworth’s three‑run homer swing the game in the Padres’ favor?

Ben Fadden 0:00
All right, the Padres, they get the win tonight over the Arizona Diamondbacks. Mason Miller. One oh three right down the pipe. That no one aeronado just looks at. For strike three. Crony with a big three run homer. Uh the Padres came back after being down early. Nando with uh double crony or not crony excuse me meryl With a ball down the line. Tied it up quickly. And I think the story of the game tonight was two guys. Herman Marquez and Johnny Bruto. Herman Marquez. He was pitching uh well. It was more like of a a T B D role when he was put back on the roster. Um, based on the Padres pitching situation. They've been doing some piggyback stuff. And tonight it was all right. Marquez is gonna start. And I think You know, it was it was a question of, okay, how long is Marquez gonna go?
Ben Fadden 1:11
And he I think he pitched much better than We were expecting him to pitch. Going five innings tonight, no earned runs. Four punch outside. Just a few hits. Um yes, that first inning looked terrible. Bases loaded, walk. To start things off, yeah, not great. Luckily And I say luckily because some sometimes to have a good outing, you do have to have luck on your side. He gets the line drive to or kind of a floating line drive. The Sang Win Song, who's Right near second base, catches the liner, touches the bag. There was one out when that happened, so double play, inning over. And then the Padre's offense can go to work from there. And after that there there wasn't any more run scored. So Is Marquez, you know, that that's one of those where it could have gotten much uglier.
Ben Fadden 2:08
if that ball is a couple feet higher and it gets over Sung Moon Song's head, right? But it didn't. And we're sitting here talking about a Padre's win, which is great. Coming off of yesterday, which was just a Really terrible day, just uh Just for At least for myself as a sports fan, rooting for the United States and then the Padres and Lay an Egg. So that was great to to see them. Come through. Today. With this win. Um Johnny Brito, I think, is a big story in this. Congratulations on h to him on his comeback. Obviously he was out for a while dealing with the forearm strain. And then he had the UCL procedure. Um And he comes back and That was one of those guys that they got in the the Michael King Juan Soto trade.
Ben Fadden 3:05
Where Grish also went to the Yankees.

What role did Herman Marquez play in the Padres’ pitching rotation after his recent call‑up?

Ben Fadden 3:07
And Bre Brito it was one of those where he can do both. He can start, he can come out of the bullpen. Which one are the Padres gonna have 'em do? And for the most part it's been out of the bullpen, but he just hasn't had a lot of appearances. Obviously, his last big league appearance was in twenty twenty four. I was looking at his baseball reference page. And I was like Oh, he didn't even pitch last year. It was it was just hard to remember. Um but he comes in tonight and The first pitch. I think you got a you got a double play. to get out of the inning and it's like, all right, that's that's a great start there. Um, he goes in inning in two thirds, no runs, one punch out. So So far, so good. with Johnny Burrito and having him, that's gonna be big.
Ben Fadden 4:04
Like Can he I know this is his first outing and I'm jumping ahead here, but What if he could be one of those guys that becomes One of the high leverage guys. in that that trust group, right? Obviously Mason Miller's on his own tier, right? Going one oh three tonight, like on another planet. Uh but No Jason Adam for a while. Estrada's still out. That would be big to have Johnny Burrito. Pitch like you did tonight and You know, really get into that trust group. Um You obviously have Moorhone, you have Bradley. Like That that can be a good group. Uh Mikimatsui, his ERA's what, two? Two oh one? So they've got they still have some good options. The bullpen, it's still An area of strength, even with Estrata down, even with
Ben Fadden 5:06
Adam down. Uh Still an area of strength. The rotation, obviously there's question marks. Marquez, he definitely has earned himself another start. And part of it's because like who else are they gonna start? But yeah, when you come out and You know, you deliver Five innings like that, no runs, yeah, you're gonna start the next time through.
