San Diego Padres ace Michael King recorded a six-out save in Game 3 of the NL Division Series, keeping the team alive after a 4-3 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers.

The win forces a Game 4, with the series tied 2-1 in Milwaukee's favor.

Padres Triumph Over Reds as Arraez Shines in 8th Straight Multihit Game

Luis Arraez has significantly boosted the Padres' offense since joining the team, contributing to a 9-6 record in games he has started. Despite not hitting many home runs, his presence at the top of the lineup has increased scoring opportunities. The Padres are dealing with Xander Bogaerts' injury, which may sideline him for two to three months, and are considering positional changes, including moving Jake Cronenworth back to second base. Michael King had a strong pitching performance, although he was unhappy about being pulled from the game. The bullpen has been effective, with Robert Suarez standing out as a reliable closer.
