What happened in the Padres vs. Nationals game and why did they lose?

Ben Fadden 0:00
All right, the Padres they drop This game tonight to the Washington Nationals this afternoon. And it's one of those where it's like, Well Kinda less speechless cause. You if I if I were to tell you before the game. That Nando Manny. Xander. They're all gonna hit home runs. Oh, and then they're gonna lose. By a lot. They're gonna lose by five runs. Yeah, that would have been hard to wrap your brain around. Like Michael King, he's gonna go six innings as well. That would have been tough. Um But that's what happens here. Michael King was cruising along. And then There goes the seventh inning. And the nationals end up scoring six runs in that seventh inning. And that ends up being the difference right there. I mean, they didn't need any of their other runs and they would have won the game right there just from their innings, just from their runs.
Ben Fadden 1:01
In that seventh inning. Um Padres made some mistakes obviously in that seventh inning. There was an umpire call there on the the force out at second base. Where Padres challenged the safe call. Craig Stamman doesn't like it. He ends up getting ejected because you can't challenge a replay call. That was his first ever ejection as Padre's manager, which is fitting because Craig Salmon isn't someone that's gonna go get in an umpire's face. Uh for him to get ejected it being a a replay challenge. Um was kinda funny. Um but yeah, in that seventh inning. King on the mound to start the inning and single. Then Nando makes a terrible throw. Walk. And then hit by pitch. to Dylan Cruz up and in. And now the nationals have a run and it's three two.
Ben Fadden 1:55
Padre is They had a three one lead in this game. Um Obviously again.

How did the seventh‑inning mistakes (force out, bad throw) swing the game?

Ben Fadden 2:03
You had the Xander home run, the Manny home run, the Tatis home run. Tati smoked up. Like for that to be his first home run, that that was not a cheap one. That was like $4.50. So that was great to see. Um, I was hoping the Padres were gonna give Fernando like the Bartillo Cologne treatment where they all ran into the dugout and no one was there. um form, but the reception that he got in the dugout was still great. They were all super happy for him, obviously. Seemed like he was kind of playing into it too, like Finally. I hit a home run. I hit the baseball over the fence. Um so Yeah, if we're gonna take pot positives from here, like of course that's a positive and He's on a twelve, what, twelve, thirteen game on base streak already.
Ben Fadden 2:47
So he's hitting the ball better. He's contributing offensively. Obviously we know he's gonna contribute defensively. Today. Didn't help in some areas there. Again in that seventh inning making that bad throw. So Going back to the seventh, Dylan Cruz hit by pitch. Bradley comes into the game.

Why was Craig Stammen ejected and what does it mean for the team?

Ben Fadden 3:10
There's a fielder's choice, there's that force out where Nando tries going to bogey. bogey Padres fans say hey he touched second base nationals fans would say no he didn't The call. Which is what mattered the most here because there wasn't firm evidence that yes, he touched second base. The call on the field was that he was safe, that Xander did not touch second base. You look at the replay. Live you're like, that's an out. You look at the replay and Xanders left Heal. Looks like maybe it's not touching the front of that base. The right foot's not on the base. There it's a force play, obviously. Tag play wouldn't have been an option on replay to to get the runner. Um and for those that are saying it was obvious that Xander
Ben Fadden 4:01
tagged second base there and that should have been an out. I I don't know if we were watching the same game. Like I'm a Padres fan. I'm gonna side with Usually the padres side on things. But І цна обіс. I had the video up on my Twitter. Go over there. Pause it. Zoom in. Xander Bogart, let me try to actually yeah, let's do this. I'm gonna share my screen. Because It's not obvious. It needs to be obvious. So let me find it. Right there. Okay. Now I'm gonna share my screen. So that the YouTube audience can see. What I'm talking about here. Let me check to make sure you can see. Okay. Look at this. His left heel, it looks like it's touching the base. But Let's use common sense here.
