The San Diego Padres and the Chicago Cubs battled through nine innings, but needed extras to decide the game at Petco Park, Tuesday night.
The Cubs took the lead with the first batter in the top of the 10th inning. Nico Hoerner faced Yuki Matsui with Dansby Swanson starting the inning on second base. Hoerner lined a ball in to the right-center field gap to score Swanson and give Chicago a 2-1 lead. Matsui then recorded a fly out, and back-to-back strikeouts of Miguel Amaya and Jon Berti to strand Hoerner at third.
The Padres threatened in their half of the 10th and had a runner on third base with one out after Jose Iglesias stole third base.
