Padres Heat Up, Control Their Fate | San Diego Padres News

The Padres are on fire, riding a five-game win streak and 15 of their last 19 to claw back into playoff contention after six weeks out. They just swept the league’s best team, with players celebrating like champions. After surviving a brutal 26 games in 27 days, they’re energized by an upcoming off day and laser-focused on their goal. Their momentum built through clutch performances — including a rare, game-changing eighth-inning play by Tatis Jr. — and they’ve silenced doubters by winning eight of ten before the trade deadline and seven of ten after. With 40 games left and a more manageable schedule ahead, they’re not just chasing the postseason — they’re controlling their own destiny.
