Brewers top Padres in Game 1 after Ty France's fly ball hits roof cable

In Game 1 of the NL Wild Card Series at American Family Field, Milwaukee's Ty France lofted a towering fly ball in the ninth that struck an overhead cable and dropped for a ground-rule out, helping the Brewers hold off San Diego. Jackson Chourio and William Contreras supplied the offense in a win that went to the wire. Manager Pat Murphy joked that late broadcaster Bob Uecker's spirit knocked the ball down.
