San Diego Padres News & Updates
The San Diego Padres were 82-69, 2nd in the NL West. Yesterday, the San Diego Padres were blown out by the Colorado Rockies 3-9 at Coors Field.
Not much is separating the good from the bad. Losing by 6 last night pulls things in the wrong direction. Counterbalancing that, 6-1 in the last 7. Hard to complain about that.
