The San Diego Padres lost 4-3 to the Miami Marlins despite out-hitting them 10-6. Strong performances from Manny Machado and Juan Soto weren't enough to push the Padres to road victory. The Padres need every win they can get to stay ahead of the Philadelphia Phillies in the National League Wildcard race.With the Los Angeles Dodgers ahead by 17 games in the National League West, a wildcard spot is the Padres' best chance at playing in October. ‏ً@BoltUpHerbert@Padres we’re gonna miss the postseason arent we19@Padres we’re gonna miss the postseason arent weThe team seems to have a solid foundation but still cannot win the games that they should.

Since then, the Padres have struggled to find an identity, and more importantly, struggled to find wins.With immense talent on the roster, it would be a shame for the Padres to miss the postseason once again. But unless they can change things quickly, that is exactly what will happen.
