The Padres ain't dead yet:
A stirring 2-1 win kept the San Diego Padres alive against the Columbus Lightning in the NLCS, forcing the series back to Ohio and putting the pressure on the Bolts. Luis Campusano's 2-run HR off Lightning ace Delvis Alegre was the difference as veteran Ryan Weathers pitched one of the best games of his career going 7 4 1 1 1 10. Adrian Mendez went two perfect innings with 5 whiffs to get the save as regular close Alexander Beltre needed some rest.
