Padres triple play clincher, Tigers battle for Wild Card | Baseball Bar-B-Cast

This embedded content is not available in your region.

There’s always a reason to celebrate a postseason berth, but how the San Diego Padres did it Tuesday night may have been one of the sweetest ways they could have ever imagined. During a game against their archrival, the Los Angeles Dodgers, at Dodgers Stadium, the Padres turned the first-ever game-ending triple play and decided the postseason spot, securing their spot in baseball this October.

Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the impressive and rare triple play kicked by Gold Glover Manny Machado, the sloppiness we’ve come to expect from the Dodgers last night in the playoffs, and whether LA fans should be worried that the boys in blue can’t secure the division.

Also in this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys talk about the Atlanta Braves winning the first game of the mega series against the New York Mets and whether the weather will affect the rest of the series. They also talk about the difficult period of the Arizona Diamondbacks, which could cause them to not make the play-offs. The Detroit Tigers seem to have secured a spot in the AL Wild Card.

Jake and Jordan close out the show by discussing the Tigers calling up top prospect Jackson Jobe, Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon announcing his retirement from baseball, and Oakland A’s owner John Fisher’s letter to fans explaining the reason for the decision to relocate the team.
