Bard (6-5) allowed three runs on three hits over one inning Monday, striking out one and earning a win over the Padres.
Bard allowed a pair of singles to start the ninth inning and, after retiring the next two batters, served up a game-tying, three-run blast to Trent Grisham. He had converted his last four save opportunities but fell to 19-for-26 after Monday's mishap. On the bright side, he was granted the win after C.J. Cron walked it off in the bottom of the ninth. Bard's ERA is up to 4.53 alongside a 61:21 K:BB through 47.2 innings.
