- Padres beat Mets 2-1 in Wild Card series, will face Dodgers
- Joe Musgrove pitches one-hit gem to secure series
Joe Musgrove brushed off chants of “Cheater!” after a bizarre spot check by umpires on the mound, pitching his hometown San Diego Padres into the next round of the playoffs on Sunday night with seven innings of one-hit ball in a 6-0 victory over the New York Mets.
The umpires checked the pitcher for illegal substances in the sixth inning – including a close look at his ears. Nothing was found and the game continued.
