LOS ANGELES —
Buried in the puddle of ink that was the nearly indecipherable scorecard for the Dodgers’ 11-10, walk-off against the Padres on Sunday at Dodger Stadium, was the unspoken.
Or the somewhat spoken. Or the misspoken.
A game that last nearly four hours, featured 73 at-bats, 23 hits and a dozen pitchers — a baseball endurance test with more twists and turns than Space Mountain — came down to the car’s internal engine, the battery.
The Padres used a pair of mound visits in the ninth inning before Max Muncy polished off his monstrous day by yanking a two-run, game-ending double — his third extra-base hit of the day.
