Padres rout Cubs in Wild Card opener as King nearly no-hits

Original: padres - cubs

The San Diego Padres beat the Chicago Cubs 8-0 in Game 1 of the NL Wild Card Series. Michael King carried a no-hit bid into the seventh inning before allowing a single infield hit against Chicago's league-best offense. Manny Machado and Fernando Tatis Jr. homered to power the blowout win, putting San Diego one victory from advancing in the playoffs.

Why now: The MLB postseason is underway and King's near no-hitter plus the Padres' blowout win made Game 1 the biggest baseball story of the day.
