Brewers' loss clinches playoff berth for Padres while they play White Sox at Petco Park
While still playing Sunday afternoon against the White Sox, the Padres were guaranteed a playoff berth by virtue of the Brewers losing 4-3 in 12 innings to the Marlins in Milwaukee.The Padres are 3½ games ahead of the Brewers, who have just three games remaining. Even if both teams finish with 87 wins, the Padres hold the tiebreaker over Milwaukee by virtue of having won four of the seven games the teams played this season.
The Padres beat the White Sox on Saturday, taking the lead in the sixth inning at almost the exact time the Brewers were blowing a ninth-inning lead. Those results left the Padres needing only a victory or a Brewers loss. After taking over first place in the NL West on June 17, the latest point in a season they had led the division since 2010, the Padres languished around .500 for a couple months. In fact, before their recent run of nine victories in 14 games, the Padres went 34-39 from June 23 through Sept. 15.
