MILWAUKEE — Joe Musgrove warmed up as the ballpark full of Midwesterners sang “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” and then the “Beer Barrel Polka” in the middle of the seventh inning Friday night at American Family Field.
It had been almost 14 months, and the Padres had played 205 games since the last time he made history.
Nearly 14 months after he became the first pitcher in 8,206 Padres games to throw a no-hitter, the right-hander nearly did it again.
