Don’t cry because it’s over…smile because it happened – and it was epic! The Padres completed their regular season with a sweep of the Diamondbacks on Sunday at beloved Petco Park. Before we look ahead, let’s pause to celebrate a few fun facts and standout achievements from the past months.
Padres 2025 – key facts from this season
- The Padres finished the regular season with a 90–72 record, placing 2nd in the NL West.
- That 90-win mark gave the Padres back-to-back 90-win seasons – for the first time in franchise history!
- They clinched a playoff spot on September 22, by beating the Milwaukee Brewers 5–4 in extra innings.
- Their postseason berth marked their fourth appearance in six seasons.
- Mason Miller had a spectacular stretch: on September 3, he threw an immaculate inning (three strikeouts on nine pitches) using nine sliders.
- The Padres’ final regular-season game was a 12–4 rout of the Diamondbacks, completing a sweep and hitting that 90-win mark in style.
Fans and audience
- At home, you made the difference: the Padres won 52 games at Petco Park, the most home wins in a season for the franchise.
- More records were broken – like the attendance one. Over the course of the season, they drew 3,437,201 fans – that’s you!
- Theme games sold out quickly, as usual. From ‘Bark at the Park’ to ‘Star Wars Weekend’ or ‘Harry Potter Day’, you were there.
- Emma Stone attended a couple of games at Petco Park, to support her favorite team. Often, she didn’t come alone, but spread the love to her fellow castmates and friends. We loved seeing Jonah Hill, Peter Brand, and Dave McCary in the crowd!
What’s next?
The Padres already packed their bags, and are on the road again! They’re now about to play the Chicago Cubs, in the National League Wild Card Series. The regular season may be over…but there’s still loads of baseball to be played.
