Yu Darvish allows only two runs, both on homers, but Phillies starter Zack Wheeler and two relievers blank Padres in Game 1 of NLCS at Petco Park.

At a projected 488 feet, it was the farthest a ball had been hit at Petco Park and the farthest a ball had ever been hit by a Phillies player since Statcast began measuring distances in 2015. The 119.7 mph exit velocity was the hardest a Phillies player had ever hit a ball as well. With two outs and Schwarber on third base, Padres second baseman Jake Cronenworth saved a run by diving to stop Harper’s 106 mph grounder in shallow right field and throwing to first. The Padres’ previous LCS occurred in 1998 and was played at Qualcomm Stadium. Darvish’s fifth strikeout ended that inning, and his sixth strikeout started the fourth. We need to come out and swing the bats a little better. “They know we need to come out and take at least one of these at home,” manager Bob Melvin said of the Padres’ players. Padres hitters did make a little history, as Tuesday was the first time in the franchise’s 48 postseason games that the Padres were held to one hit. Wednesday (FS1, 97.3-FM) before the series heads to Philadelphia for Games 3 and 4 (and 5, if necessary). To get there again, they will need to win four games while the Phillies need just three more. “It was a hard-fought game,” Padres third baseman Manny Machado said. The previous two times they played in an LCS resulted in World Series appearances.

Bryce Harper and Kyle Schwarber both went deep, and Zack Wheeler and Philadelphia's bullpen combined to allow only one hit in a hard-fought Game 1.

I’m going to continue to pitch like I pitch. The novelty there will be that he will face his brother, San Diego catcher Austin Nola — just as he did in a regular-season game — which surely will put their parents in an emotional and awkward position. Another Game 2 twist will be Snell starting for the Padres and facing Harper. Harper had given Wheeler all the breathing room he would need in the fourth inning by pounding a 1-0 fastball the opposite way over the left field fence. I’m going to pitch how I pitch. Harper knew Snell was not throwing at him but, rather, attempting to work inside. Realmuto was on the business end of a nice mix of mid-90s fastballs and low-80s curveballs as Wheeler’s dominating postseason continued. He also was the last. Wheeler came into the day with an 18⅔ -innings scoreless streak against the Padres and, over seven regular season career starts, had a 2.06 E.R.A. He is 11 for 26 with four homers and three doubles this postseason. The beat, and beatings, go on for Philadelphia, following the same pattern. It was the longest home run ever recorded at Petco Park, which opened in 2004.

A pesar de que las autoridades no han revelado cuales son las escuelas que se han visto más afectadas, se asegura que han habido interrupciones en el aprendizaje en algunos centros educativos. Debido a un repunte en los contagios por el COVID-19 en las escuelas del condado Montgomery, las autoridades sanitarias exhortan a las familias a considerar reforzar a los niños con la última dosis de la vacuna ante la llegada del invierno. “El COVID no se ha ido a ninguna parte, ahora solamente el 38% de los niños de 5 a 11 años han recibido por lo menos una vacuna, entonces los números son muy bajos y mientras sigamos en este patrón, nunca vamos a salir del COVID”, explicó la portavoz del Departamento de Salud y Servicios Humanos del condado Montgomery, Janette Peralta.

Juan Soto, Manny Machado and unlikely star Trent Grisham went silent for the San Diego Padres, giving the Petco Park faithful little to cheer in the city's ...

That brought Soto to the plate. The Rally Goose showed up, too, appearing on the giant video board in the eighth. The yellow towel-waving crowd of 44,826 did its part, exhorting the Padres with supportive chants throughout.

It's true. Think about it. When was the last time a professional San Diego sports teams won anything? The Padres won an NL Pennant in 1984 and 1998.

They were considered World Series contenders at the start of the season and now, one underwhelming 162-game campaign and franchise-mortgaging trade later, they are. And yet, because there’s always a yet, there’s no real reason to believe the Padres can’t do this. and the best they came up with is “Philly going down to yellow and brown.” This isn’t an embarrassment, it’s a humiliation.

A group of seven middle-aged men appeared on KUSI's Good Morning San Diego, all in Padres gear to perform their hip hop tribute to their favorite baseball team.

Guys! I would absolutely ask my parents to move, or transfer schools, and begin counting the days until I could move far, far away from what happened here today. The level of cringe here broke my cringeometer.

Padres fans, get ready to cheer on your Friars at their homefield this week, even when they're away.

Salty slogan has gained traction in city excited about first National League Championship Series since 1998. Jorge Alfaro, team's walkoff king, ...

Chicago media told him the crowds were the loudest they’d heard at a baseball game. Veteran Braves players called it the loudest baseball environment they’d encountered. Imitating the likes of Manny Machado, Jorge Alfaro and Trent Grisham, half of San Diego’s now salting their Padres cheers. The tension built as Alfaro spouted cliches. On this season’s first summer night, he swatted a walk-off hit, an emerging specialty of his. Hockey players sound like monks (not Padres) in comparison.

Here's how San Diego and Philadelphia match up, and who our experts think will move on from here.

[Mike Clevinger](https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/32769/mike-clevinger) drew the ball against the Dodgers in Game 1 and got knocked out in the third inning -- this after a 6.52 ERA in September. 4 ( [Noah Syndergaard](https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/31730/noah-syndergaard)) and probably the No. [Juan Soto](https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/36969/juan-soto), who hit just six home runs in 52 games with the Padres, continues to search for his power stroke.

Veteran [Luis Garcia](https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/33089/luis-garcia) has hit 101 mph in the postseason. [Bryce Harper](https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/30951/bryce-harper) hit just .227/.335/.352 with three home runs. [Alec Bohm](https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41169/alec-bohm) is a problem at third base, and in the Phils' only loss so far, Game 2 to the Braves, Hoskins butchered a ground ball that led to a couple of runs. Meanwhile, [Jose Alvarado](https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/36063/jose-alvarado), who allowed just two home runs in the regular season, has served up two in the postseason. Of their six home runs, three have come with runners on base, including three-run homers from [Rhys Hoskins](https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/35291/rhys-hoskins) and [Brandon Marsh](https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/40803/brandon-marsh) against Atlanta.

The Padres look to even things up, while the Phillies are hoping to go home with a 2-0 series lead.

The Phillies are really set up well here with Nola going and the bullpen having not worked overly hard in Game 1, but I think we're in for a long series and the Padres find a way to strike back. [Philadelphia Phillies](https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/teams/PHI/philadelphia-phillies/) drew first blood in the NLCS, taking down the [San Diego Padres](https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/teams/SD/san-diego-padres/) in Game 1 on Tuesday behind [Zack Wheeler](/mlb/players/1744777/zack-wheeler/), [Bryce Harper](/mlb/players/1765813/bryce-harper/) and [Kyle Schwarber](/mlb/players/2135243/kyle-schwarber/). He only lasted 3 1/3 in his Wild Card Series start, thanks in large part to six walks, but was great against the Dodgers in his NLDS start (5 1/3 IP, 5 H, 1 ER, 2 BB, 6 K). Snell faced the Phillies twice this year and only lasted 9 1/3 innings while pitching to a 6.75 ERA and 1.50 WHIP.
