Through the first two innings of Thursday’s wild card game, it looked like it was about to be a repeat of Game 1 when the Cardinals took another early 4-0 lead through the first two innings. But the Padres dug deep and the bats came alive as both Fernando Tatis Jr. and Wil Myers each hit a pair of home runs to elevate them over the Cardinals 11-9 in Game 2 of the NLWCS.
The feat achieved by Tatis and Myers was, in short, historic.
