And because of that, their season remains alive for at least one more day. What Nick Pivetta started, Michael King finished. How it got...3627Wed, 07 Oct 2026 05:45:00 +0000https://padresmission.com/news-rumors/san-diego-padres/padres-nick-pivetta-faces-his-biggest-test-yet-against-the-brewers-r3625/The San Diego Padres are on the brink of elimination with a 0-2 deficit in the NLDS against a Milwaukee Brewers team that grew stronger with two exciting comebacks at home. But that is not the only worrying news, as Nick Pivetta was announced to take the mound as the starter for the do-or-die co...3625Tue, 06 Oct 2026 22:32:02 +0000https://padresmission.com/news-rumors/san-diego-padres/padres-offense-has-no-room-to-continue-wasting-opportunities-r3626/It has not been for a lack of opportunities.
