David Morgan worked a scoreless eighth inning despite allowing a walk to leadoff batter Yohel Pozo. He later advanced to second on a wild pitch, but was stranded there when Morgan struck out the next three batters he faced. The three strikeouts for Morgan were part of 16 total strikeouts for Padres pitchers in the game.

His retiring the Phillies’ 1-2-3 batters in order in the ninth inning ended a day in which the Padres otherwise relied on lower-leverage relievers Bryan Hoeing, Wandy Peralta, David Morgan and Yuki Matsui to patch together nine innings.
