It is a testament to how good Joe Musgrove has been this season when he goes 6.0 innings, allowing one run and striking out seven, and it wasn't even one of his better outings. Musgrove did what he's done all nine starts this season, turn in a quality start and give his team a chance to win. But, for the first time in 2022, the Padres didn't finish the job. San Diego's offense squandered multiple scoring opportunities and closer Taylor Rogers blew his 2nd save chance in a 4-2 loss to the Pirates at Petco Park on Saturday night.
Musgrove was tremendous, as usual, scattering six hits and dropping his season ERA to 1.89. However, his offense didn't give him a cushion to work with, as usual. The Padres loaded the bases in the 2nd, 6th, and 8th innings. They did not score a single run in any of those opportunities. Their only runs came on an Austin Nola sacrifice fly and a Trent Grisham RBI single, the latter coming in the 7th inning to give the Friars a 2-1 lead.
