That's the kind of lockdown relief you need to win in the postseason these days. On Saturday, they allowed one run in three innings, which gave them an ERA of 0.56 for the series. The Padre pen came into Game 4 with these numbers through the first three games of the NLDS: 13 IP, 5 H, 0 R, 15 SO, 4 BB. After the Padres snatched the lead, the bullpen notched the final six outs without any dramatics.

Yes, the San Diego relief corps allowed their first run of the series after taking over for starter Joe Musgrove, but it didn't come in anything like authoritative fashion (the Dodgers pushed across a run against Steven Wilson in their small-ball top of the seventh).
Given the "little brother" status of the Padres when it comes to the Dodgers and given the stakes, it's no exaggeration to call that one of the biggest innings in Padres franchise history.
That made it 5-3, and that 10.8 percent chance of a Padres win had become a 90.2 percent chance of a Padres win.

Going into the bottom of the seventh, the Padres trailed 3-0 and had just a 10.8 percent chance of winning Game 4, per basic win expectancy. The seventh inning was one to remember for the Padres Now for some takeaways from the Game 4 clincher. In the bottom of the seventh, however, the Padres clawed back to plate five runs and seize a lead that the San Diego bullpen, nearly perfect in this series, would hold. That lead grew to 3-0 in the top of the seventh thanks to a Will Smith sac fly. In Game 4, the Padres trailed for much of the game after the Dodger offense finally managed some timely hitting in the second for a 2-0 lead. The series win means that the Padres will be in the NLCS for the first time since 1998, where they will face the Phillies. In doing so they won the series, 3-1, in upset fashion. The San Diego Padres staged a furious late-inning comeback and knocked the top-seeded Los Angeles Dodgers out of the playoffs with a 5-3 win in Game 4 of the National League Division Series on Saturday night.
