San Diego Topples Pittsburgh, 5-2
Chris Sale, who finished 3rd in the AL in strikeouts with 244 in 2022, had a strong outing for the San Diego Padres against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Petco Park. The left-hander was a big part of his team's 5-2 win. In 5.1 innings, Sale surrendered 8 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 0. He allowed 2 runs. Ryan Walker closed it out for his 17th save.

Edmundo Sosa had a big 3-run home run for the Padres in the bottom of the first inning. With San Diego leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a slider from Bailey Ober, who is tied for 10th in the NL in innings pitched with 76.2, and swatted a home run to right-center. It was his 6th home run of the season, and more importantly, it put the Padres ahead, 4-0.

San Diego manager Matt O commended his team for "banging out a nice win."

With the win over Pittsburgh, the Padres improved to 33-23.
