September 19, 2023 (San Diego) - The Padres got a win last night against the Rockies, but they almost let it get away from them in the ninth.  They tried to take the series today with Ryan Feltner on the mound for Colorado against Blake Snell.

Both Snell and Robert Suarez combined for a no-hitter through eight and a half innings, only to be broken up by a leadoff single in the ninth.  But in the home half of the ninth, Xander Bogaerts saved the day with a two-run walkoff blast and the Padres took the series with an easy 2-0 win.
