SAN DIEGO (AP) — The San Diego Padres clinched their first playoff berth in a full season since 2006 when the Milwaukee Brewers lost 4-3 to the Miami Marlins in 12 innings. The Marlins-Brewers game ended with the Padres batting in the bottom of the seventh inning against the Chicago White Sox. When the final score went up on the out-of-town scoreboard, the sellout crowd of 41,407 at Petco Park stood and cheered. The Padres trailed 2-0 at the time but Kim Ha-seong homered a few minutes later. San Diego came into the day leading Philadelphia by two games for the second of three NL wild cards and Milwaukee was a game back of the Phillies.
