Brewers beat Padres 3-2 in NLDS after roof play controversy

sportsOct 4, 202632704

The Milwaukee Brewers beat the San Diego Padres 3-2 in Game 1 of the NL Division Series, taking a 1-0 series lead. William Contreras delivered a tiebreaking solo homer in the seventh inning. In the ninth, Ty France hit what would have been a go-ahead home run but the ball struck a roof apparatus and stayed in play, creating a bizarre, game-deciding moment that kept the Padres from tying the score. Padres pitchers and defense kept the game close while San Diego left 11 runners on base, contributing to the loss. The Brewers held on to win the opener despite the controversial finish.

They didn’t lose. They just ran out of sky.

Why was the roof even closed in Milwaukee??

Padres left way too many runners stranded. Having said that I think the Brewers Banana Ball stadium rules suck. If a batter hits a ball in and it hits any object including the outfield wall it cannot be caught for an out. That's the rules except in that Banana Ball stadium.

As much as I love your contribution to society, go Brewers!

Craziest end to a game I can remember.

Carol, the best wrap around, Reynolds2

I’m in San Diego at the moment. It’s HOT!!! 105 today. Crazy.

All the talk about the end of the Brewers game has me wondering what my own trajectory might have been had I not hit some obstructions myself, imagine how far I might have gone or where I could have landed if perhaps my own Padres had been different.

Hey Sarah, thinking about all the ceilings we hit in our relationship. Thinking if you just opened up I might have been better. You up?

You didn't finish those BuzzBalls today, did you

Final: Brewers 3, Padres 2 How did the Milwaukee Brewers win that baseball game? Your guess is as good as any. And it also doesn't matter. All that does is they did. Somehow, someway. They did. Series: 1-0, Brewers

I’m out in the middle of nowhere in Arizona. The buffering is killing us! We got as far as the ball that hit the roof and the stream crapped out entirely. Thank you for letting us sleep tonight.

It was because of me.

I’ve never seen the ball hit the roof in the 25 years this stadium has been open. That’s insane

if padres-brewers were on fox instead of fs1, there probably wouldn't have been an issue with cabling

That was definitely going upper deck. Padres got robbed

Looks like the Big Ten has announced Ty France hit a grand slam. When notified that there just one man was on base at the time, they declined to answer questions, and said Padres 6, Brewers is the final score.

Jackson Chourio is a master of the mid-game ambush. William Contreras knows when not to try to pull the ball. The genius of the #Brewers' two Venezuelan sluggers shone in Game 1, and made the difference on both sides of the ledger. brewerfanatic.com/news-rumors/...

Brewers-Padres series has the most juice, even more than the one in a ballpark named after juice

💯🍻 bit of baseball left to play but through ONE game, the narrative: scrappy little Padres can’t match Brewers’ timely power-hitting

Padres bullshitting their way on base all night on soft contact and the Brewers winning on two tanks is quite poetic.

Oh, thank fuck we got this one. Maybe cool off the red hot Padres. After all, we got an HR off their bullpen. They should have gotten one off of Megill (probably), but I think MLB dictates that the roof be closed for #OctoberBaseball. #ThisIsMyCrew #Brewers #WinOurWay

Blame MLB for the closed roof, Padres fans. Thank MLB for the closed roof, Brewers fans.
