In the official box score, Murikami was credited with a double on his last hit. If you watch the re[play, you can see that he ran as far as second before abandoning the base paths to join in the celebration. Given the situation (winning run on first, no outs) he could have gotten a single, double, triple (if he had chosen to run to third), or no hit at all if he had just stayed near home plate and welcomed home the runners.
 
What a horrible day yesterday was -- on Opening Day, the Padres lost a game, the Red Sox lost a game, the Dodgers won a game, and the Yankees won a game.

And yet I slept soundly last night with the feeling that America had won at least one inning.

The Padres will always be the adopted little brother of the Dodgers. He has fewer presents at Christmas and uglier girlfriends. He gets the smaller bedroom, a lighter 529B plan and a cheaper packet on picture day.

How'd you do in the series against Philly? Wasn't finishing the regular season 22 games out enough to show us who you really are?

Wake me up when you win a ring and people go to Padres games for more than a suntan.

What do you mean by "you"?

The world's best baseball player will be a free agent at the end of this season. He is looking for a winning team, and (obviously) lots of money. Maybe the Padres?

MLB analyst predicts Shohei Ohtani's future home will not be far from his current one: "I see him with Dodgers or Padres who spend money" (sportskeeda.com)

The Padres already have 2 salary prima donnas on their roster and the 3rd highest payroll in MLB. Between Soto and Machado, you can't afford Ohtani. What your team needs is a psychiatrist. You'll never win anything.
