Padres Slide Into Playoff Trouble | San Diego Padres News
Description
The Padres are reeling after an eight-game losing streak, their longest since 2013, and now sit two games under .500 with playoff hopes fading fast. Once eleven games over .500 in May, they’ve plummeted to third in the division, five games behind a wild-card spot. Despite solid pitching from Griffin Canning—four innings, one run—they couldn’t overcome Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s seven shutout innings and 10 strikeouts. The offense went cold, managing just a few hits and failing to cash in on key opportunities, including Fernando Tatis Jr. reaching third in the first. The Dodgers pulled away with homers from Freddie Freeman and another run in the eighth. With their season on the brink, the Padres need a dramatic turnaround in both offense and pitching.
