Padres vs. Mets Game Highlights (9/17/25) | MLB Highlights

11 games to go in the regular season. The Giants beat the Diamondbacks today. The Reds beat the Cardinals. Mets are three games up in the loss column on all three pursuers. Padres’s have lost 13 of their last 21. They’re still just two games behind the Dodgers in the NL West. And David Peterson will try and shut them down tonight. You know, Gary, his last seven starts, he’s given up 28 runs in 35 and a third. He’s up now to 162 in a third innings. never has pitched more than 128 and that was in the miners many seasons ago. Fernando Tatis Jr. will lead things off for San Diego and a liner into left field. A base hit for Fernando right down the middle with the forseen fast ball and he turns on it, sends it into left for a single ball four. So single and a walk to start things here for Peterson in the first inning. So here’s Manny Machado with a chance to do some early damage. Now Machado tops one toward third. Batty’s only play will be the first and he gets Machado for the first out of the night as the runners move up. So two in scoring position with one out. Gavin Sheets will be the better. Loops one towards center field. Mullets coming in going to make the catch. Fires homeward. Tack it up towards Fernando. He will score on a sack fly and the Padres strike first on top one to nothing. Nick Paveta who’s having the season of his life at age 32. Pavetta’s numbers this year after a San Diego loss. carry. 16 times he’s taken the hill. He’s 8 and three with a 2.10. He’s been the stopper. Padres’s leading one to nothing with two out, nobody on. Lonzo’s 118 RBI’s, 10 behind the league leader, Kyle Schwarber. Alonzo drills one deep left center. That’s gone. Pete Alonzo homers for the third straight game. Number 36 for Pete. And that ties things up at one. A three-run home run on Sunday turned around that eight-game losing streak and he is now on one of those rolls. Second inning from City Field in New York. That’s in Merill. Jose Glacius and Jake Cronorn. Somebody’s hot. Somebody’s hot in the batters box right now. And flared to left center field. That’ll get in for a base hit for Merrill. SAP fouled some off. Took some. Ends up working the base hit to start things here in the second inning. Little dribbler in front of the plate. Out comes the pitcher Peterson and he’ll throw him out. Must work like a button. Dora trying to keep Merryill close at second. Grinworth had a home run last night. Padres’s hit three home runs last night, but the Mets hit four and really have the game in their command the entire way. Luke to shallow right center. That’ll fall in for a base hit. Here comes Merrill around. He’ll score and the Padres’s take it to Juan Lee. Jake Cronorth driving in a run. Well, it’s not as if Peterson’s getting knocked around here. I mean, the Merrill blooper was 74 mph off the bat and then Croninworth bloops one in there 70 mph off the bat. So, really, it’s a couple of bloopers that fell in and a good read there by Merrill knowing that no one was going to make the catch. Oh, the Mets starting to straighten it out after dropping eight in a row, one last night. Trying to build something here as the chase for the wild card continues. Nart drives one deep left field. Forget that. That’s way out of here. Sterling Marte ties the game. Now, Carlos Mendoza decided tonight to take Mark Vienten out of the lineup, put Starly Marte in, and Marte delivers. So, a hit by pitch and a walk sandwiched around a sacrifice by Diaz have put two guys on here for Luis Arise. And we know Luis would not be particularly comfortable against Peterson his first time off. We’ll see how he approaches this impact. Does bunt towards third base. It’s a dandy picked up by Batty. He’s got no play. And a blunt base hit for Luis Arise. Loads the bases for Manny Machado. 355 hitter. Base is loaded. Most career grand slams among active players who had 13 on his resume. Manny hits in the air to left field. Back goes Nemo. Look it up. It’s gone. Grand slam. Manny Machado. Man oh man. Oh manny. Padres take a 62 lead. One swing of the bat. Manny Machado with his 14th grand slam of his career. Didn’t see one fast ball in that at bat. And you just got the sense Manny was sitting all over that breaking ball. He had seen three straight change ups, was not sniffing at it. All of a sudden, that curveball comes and Manny leans on it to left center. Boy, this inning has had a little bit of everything from the Padre offense. The ultimate trust of teammate to teammate passing the baton down that line. Well, there’s nothing to be happy about when you give up a grand slam for the first time in your career to snap a two- two tie. And now the Mets have to fight uphill against Nick Paveta. They’ve already hit two solo home runs against Paveta tonight. And the curve ball, he didn’t miss this one. That’s driven out of here. Juan Sto with a line drive home run. His 41st of the year to match his careerh high. The Mets third home run of the night and it cuts the Padre lead to six-3. 41 home runs as a Yankee last year. 41 home runs in his first year as a Mets. And after Hamill got the first two, a hit batsman, now a single by Tatis. First and second, two out for Luis Arise. Well, this is supposed to be a soft landing for Hamill right down at the bottom of the order. So, he really needs to get through here unscathed for the Mets to have a chance. That’s lined into right field of base for a rise and that’ll bring home Diaz. Tatis going to third. The throw comes into second and arise is out. The run does not count. They say that Diaz did not cross the plate before the out was made. How is that even possible? Mets getting a huge break as Elias Diaz slowed down coming between third and home. It did not cross the plate before a rise was tagged out at second. So no run teams. It’s a 6-3 game. Francisco Alvare has been up twice and flight out to right both times now facing Jeremiah Estrada and Francisco gets one well to right center field back in the gap goes Tatis and it’s off the top of the wall in play that head right on top of the orange padding and somehow did not go out of the ballpark it’s a double for Alvarez it missed being a home run by about an inch I don’t know how it hits that far over and doesn’t just topple over the fence. It’s amazing. The ball struck a part of the outside the playing field. Therefore, it is a I mean, I didn’t see any evidence that it did, but the Mets will take it. It’s their fourth home run of the night. Alvarez’s ninth of the year, and that cuts the Padre lead to 64. That’s ball four. And the Mets will get the tying run to bat. So, Estrada gives up a home run and a walk to his first two hitters. And now Francisco Lindor will come up as the tying run. Hopped up right side. Cronorth the feet on the dirt of the infield. Makes the catch. First out here the seventh. Six to four. Padres’s have the lead. The tying run coming to the plate here for the Mets. And a new pitcher for the Padres’s. Their fourth of the game. Mason Miller. And this is crunch time. This could be the game with the score with the base runner on base with uh part of the lineup for the Mets. Enter Mason Miller. and Watt hits the fast ball down the left field line slicing toward the corner and Lauriano watches it go foul. Just fouls. That is as close as it could possibly be to left field at City Field just to the left of the foul pole. It had the home run distance and this has been one of them Russian novel kind of nights here in New York with the Padres’s and the Mets. That the strike three gets him looking on the slider. Talk about the perfect pitch. Mason Miller goes back door slider and splits the black to get Juan Sodo looking. He had to earn that punchy. Now Alonszo, another heavyweight bout. Swings and misses. Strike three. Back with the slider to get him. And Mason Miller comes out of the bullpen to get Sodto and Alonszo. Two down in the ninth. Here’s Lauriano driven to left field on a line. It is back and that is gone. Raone Lauriano with a solo shot. His 24th of the year. Some insurance here in the top of the ninth inning. Padres’s take a 74 lead. And Juan Sto will come to bat representing a potential tying run with two outs in the bottom of the ninth. Here we go again. Power versus power. Swings, lines it right back to Suarez. He knocks it down, picks it up, throws to first in time, and the ball game is over. Robert Suarez, an eventful but effective ninth inning, picks up his 39th save of the year to move into a tie for the major league lead. And the Padres’s behind a Manny Machado Grand Slam beat the Mets tonight 7 to4 and set up a rubber game here tomorrow
