San Diego Padres emerged victorious in a high-scoring game against the Los Angeles Dodgers at the Gocheok Sky Dome in South Korea. The Padres' Xander Bogaerts expressed his desire to play more games at the venue after a remarkable performance. Jake Cronenworth shined with four hits and four RBIs, contributing significantly to the Padres' 15-11 win.
The game was overshadowed by the dismissal of Shohei Ohtani's interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara, due to alleged ties to illegal gambling. Despite this distraction, Ohtani had a decent performance, hitting a sacrifice fly and securing two RBIs in the series.
The Padres capitalized on the Dodgers' errors, outhitting them 17-16 and taking advantage of three defensive mistakes that led to unearned runs. Manny Machado sealed the victory with a three-run homer in the ninth inning.
Yoshinobu Yamamoto, making his major league debut for the Dodgers, struggled on the mound, allowing five runs in just one inning of work. The Padres' offense was relentless, building a commanding lead early in the game.
