Padres Daily: Time is of the excellence; confidence breeds breathing easy Padres tend to do better when they take longer; Joe Musgrove tends to win after his team has lost
SEPTEMBER 16, 2021 • SANDIEGOUNIONTRIBUNE.COM
Earns win over Giants Musgrove (11-9) earned the win over San Francisco on Wednesday, allowing three runs on five hits and three walks while striking out four over six innings.
Impact For his second straight outing, Musgrove yielded exactly three runs over six frames, but whereas his last start resulted in a loss, the Padres gave the right-hander enough run support to notch a win Wednesday. The 28-year-old wasn't overpowering -- he induced only six swinging strikes and picked up just four punchouts -- but he was able to register his eighth quality start in his past 10 appearances. Musgrove will carry a 2.99 ERA into his next start, which is likely to come in a rematch with San Francisco -- this time at home -- early next week.

Gets no offensive support Friday Musgrove (10-9) suffered the loss against the Dodgers on Friday, pitching six innings and allowing three runs on four hits and five walks while striking out seven.
Impact The performance was not among Musgrove's best as a Padre -- he issued a season-high five walks and gave up three runs for the first time since Aug. 14 -- but he still managed to secure his third quality start in his past four outings. However, San Diego's offense remained stale against the division-rival Dodgers, resulting in the right-hander's ninth loss. Musgrove's so-so 10-9 record doesn't do justice to his effectiveness on the campaign, as he has posted a 2.93 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 180:45 K:BB across 159.2 innings. His next start is likely to come in San Francisco next week.

Picks up 10th win Musgrove (10-8) earned the win over Houston on Saturday, hurling 5.1 innings and allowing two runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out four.
Impact Musgrove allowed at least one baserunner in each of the six frames during which he took the mound and needed 100 pitches to get through 5.1 innings, but he was able to navigate around constant traffic to hold Houston to just two runs. The right-hander has held opponents to two or fewer earned runs in seven of his past eight starts, with the lone exception being an Aug. 14 blowup against Arizona. Musgrove has looked like the ace of the Padres' staff this season, leading all starters in wins (10), ERA (2.87), WHIP (1.01) and strikeouts (173).His next start is likely to take place in Los Angeles against the Dodgers on Friday.
