Joe Musgrove last pitched for the San Diego Padres on Oct. 2, 2024. He walked off the mound that day, a playoff game versus the Atlanta Braves in Game 2 of the National League Wild Card series, knowing that his elbow was done. He had known for most of the season that his time was […]
Sometimes you roll snake eyes and the Atlanta Braves very nearly did end up doing so against the Snakes, themselves.
