Summary
The San Diego Padres somehow lost a game they appeared to have won twice. San Diego carried a 3-1 lead into the ninth inning behind six strong innings from Robbie Ray, Xander Bogaerts' two-run single and a Sung-Mun Song sacrifice fly. Then came one of the strangest plays of the season. With two outs in the ninth, Jonny DeLuca lifted a fly ball to left field. Samad Taylor tracked it down and got the baseball into his glove several feet short of the wall — but after Taylor's glove contacted the wall, the ball popped out and went over the fence for a game-tying two-run homer. Instead of a Padres victory, the game was tied 3-3. San Diego survived the 10th behind a tremendous escape from Yuki Matsui and retook the lead 4-3 in the 11th on Ty France's sacrifice fly. Then they blew the lead again. A Xander Bogaerts fielding error allowed Tampa Bay to tie the game before Jorge Mateo's single to left scored the winning run for a 5-4 Rays walk-off victory in 11 innings.
