SAN DIEGO — Jake Cronenworth singled to right field with the bases loaded and two outs in the 10th inning to give the San Diego Padres a 3-2 win over the Texas Rangers on Friday. Cronenworth's walk-off single in the 10th lifts the Padres to a 3-2 win over the Rangers
Cronenworth's single off Robert Garcia brought in automatic runner Jackson Merrill. Cronenworth raised his right index finger as he rounded first base and was mobbed by teammates near second after his fifth career walk-off hit.
Manny Machado was intentionally walked to open the inning and Luis Arraez struck out. Gavin Sheets singled to center to load the bases. Xander Bogaerts injured himself swinging at the first pitch of his at-bat, was checked by an athletic trainer and left the game. Bryce Johnson replaced him and struck out.
The Rangers went to extra innings for the sixth time in nine games, losing four of them.
Machado had two hits to reach 1,997 in his career, including a 440-foot solo home run to straightaway center field in the fourth to pull the Padres to 2-1. Machado, elected the National League's starting third baseman for the All-Star Game, has 356 career homers.
The Rangers jumped on Randy Vásquez with two outs in the third. Josh Smith walked and Corey Seager singled, with both scoring when Marcus Semien doubled to right-center over Fernando Tatis Jr.'s outstretched glove.
After Machado's homer pulled the Padres within one, they tied it in the sixth, getting just one run despite loading the bases with one out.
Tatis opened with a triple that ticked off the glove of right fielder Adolis García. Machado's one-out walk chased starter Kumar Rocker, and Arraez greeted Hoby Milner with an RBI single. Sheets singled to load the bases before Milner struck out Bogaerts and Cronenworth.
Adrian Morejon got the win.
Cronenworth's single ended it after 3 hours, 8 minutes.
Machado can become the 12th player to reach 350 homers and 2,000 hits at age 32 or younger.
Rangers RHP Jack Leiter is scheduled to start Saturday night against Padres RHP Stephen Kolek .

Yankees pitcher Clarke Schmidt faces major setback with expected Tommy John surgery

Yankees pitcher Clarke Schmidt faces major setback with expected Tommy John surgery (Image via Getty) Once again, a major injury has upset the pitching rotation of the New York Yankees. Right-handed pitcher Clarke Schmidt was discovered to have a torn UCL in his elbow on July 5, 2025 and will likely need Tommy John surgery. This abrupt growth happens at a time when the Yankees already face serious health problems throughout their pitching staff. Schmidt will probably miss the whole 2025 campaign as well as much of 2026. Clarke Schmidt expected to miss extended time after second Tommy John surgery On Friday, New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone revealed to reporters that Clarke Schmidt would most likely have Tommy John surgery after a UCL tear. On July 4, the 29-year-old righty had just gone on the 15-day injured list for what was initially said to be forearm tightness. The problem turned out to be more serious. The New York Post's Joel Sherman said that Boone spoke during a media briefing. Before the injury announcement, Clarke Schmidt had quietly pieced together a solid season. Despite starting his 2025 campaign late due to rotator cuff tendonitis, Schmidt posted a 3.32 ERA over 78.2 innings. He carried a streak of 28 1/3 scoreless innings in June, which added stability to a Yankees rotation already missing key arms. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Нов таблет с Android Pro 14 Murreice Купете сега Undo But trouble returned when he gave up seven earned runs in his last two starts against the Oakland Athletics and Toronto Blue Jays. He was pulled from the July 3 game against Toronto after just three innings. Clarke Schmidt's injury adds pressure to Yankees rotation plans This is the second time Clarke Schmidt will have Tommy John surgery, the first being in 2017 when he was a college pitcher at South Carolina. He also missed parts of the 2021 and 2024 seasons due to arm and lat injuries. Given the typical recovery time of 13–15 months, Schmidt may not return until the end of 2026 or even Opening Day 2027.

The Yankees may also explore trade options before the deadline to patch their rotation woes. Schmidt remains arbitration-controlled through 2027, but the team could consider a short-term contract to support his rehab.

Mariners' Cal Raleigh could surpass franchise icon against Pirates

Dan Wilson and Ken Griffey Jr. were teammates when the latter hit a franchise- record 35 home runs before the All-Star break in 1998. Mariners' Cal Raleigh could surpass franchise icon against Pirates Wilson, now the Seattle Mariners manager, was asked to make a comparison Friday afternoon after Cal Raleigh homered twice in a 6-0 victory against the Pittsburgh Pirates to match Griffey's feat. "It's remarkable. I mean, it feels like hits a home run every game. That's what it feels like. And I remember feeling it as a player that Junior just felt like he hit a home run every day," Wilson said. "And again, that's the consistency that he has shown. It hasn't been a streak where he's hit a bunch of home runs in a short amount of time. It's been kind of 10 per month and it's continuing here in July." Raleigh will look to break the mark when the three-game interleague series continues Saturday night in Seattle. Raleigh nearly left the yard literally on a two-run homer off Pirates left-hander Bailey Falter in the first inning, as his 433-foot blast landed three rows from the top of T-Mobile Park's second deck in left field. It was the hardest hit ball of Raleigh's career at 115.2 mph. "It felt good. Took advantage of a mistake. He's a good arm. Just tried to get on a heater middle of the plate and was able to take advantage," Raleigh said. As for matching Griffey? "I've said it ... to be mentioned with that name, with somebody who's just iconic, is a legend, first ballot Hall of Famer, I'm just blessed," Raleigh said. "Just trying to do the right thing and try to keep it rolling and if I can try to be like that guy, it's a good guy to look up to." Teammate Randy Arozarena added a solo shot in the fourth, his fifth homer in as many games, and Raleigh just cleared the fence in the sixth on a high fly to left field. "Raleigh is having one heck of a year and got twice," Pirates manager Don Kelly said. " only gave up the three hits, but they were all home runs." Seattle's Dylan Moore snapped out of a 1-for-38 slump that included 24 strikeouts with a solo homer in the seventh off Braxton Ashcraft. That was more than enough offense for Bryan Woo, who allowed just three hits all to Nick Gonzales over six scoreless innings. Raleigh, who will be the American League's starting catcher in the All-Star Game, made a case for Woo to join him later this month in Atlanta. "He's taken that next step in his career and taken ownership of who he is as a pitcher and how he wants to go about his business," Raleigh said. "I'm very proud of him and he's doing great things. I think he should be an All-Star." While the Mariners didn't have a single at-bat with a runners in scoring position, the Pirates went 0-for-7. "Today was tough," admitted Kelly, whose team had a six-game winning streak snapped, including a run of three consecutive shutouts. "We didn't get that big hit with runners in scoring position. It's something that's plagued us this year at times, and it got us again. But when we look back over the past week, we've been getting those hits, and the guys are gonna continue to work and pull through most of the time." The Pirates are set to send Mike Burrows to the mound Saturday against a fellow right-hander in the Mariners' Luis Castillo . Burrows, who will be facing the Mariners for the first time, most recently pitched Sunday, allowing one run on four hits in 4 1/3 innings of a 12-1 victory against the visiting New York Mets. Castillo also pitched Sunday and didn't get a decision at Texas despite allowing one run through six innings in a game the Mariners won 6-4 in 12 innings. Castillo is 6-5 with a 2.60 ERA in 15 career starts against Pittsburgh. Field Level Media This article was generated from an automated news agency feed without modifications to text.
