SAN DIEGO PADRES TICKETS

SAN DIEGO PADRES HISTORY

The San Diego Padres may still be waiting for their first World Series title, but that hasn’t stopped them from becoming one of MLB’s most beloved clubs. Founded in 1969, the Padres have built an identity around offensive baseball, legendary players and a city where the sport is a way of life.

Over the years, the club has produced some of baseball’s greatest figures. Tony Gwynn, one of MLB’s finest hitters of all time, remains the Padres’ greatest icon, while later generations have seen stars such as Trevor Hoffman, Manny Machado and Fernando Tatís Jr. wear the brown and gold. The team has reached the World Series twice – in 1984 and 1998 – but are still chasing that elusive first championship.

Their home ground, Petco Park, is one of the most spectacular ballparks in MLB, with views of the San Diego skyline and an atmosphere that makes every game an event. Rivalries with the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants ensure that divisional matchups are always fierce.

The San Diego Padres are where sun, sea and baseball come together – and a game at Petco Park is as much an experience as it is a sporting occasion.
