Padres get much-needed and extremely rare Sunday to rest

Sunday is the day of rest, as it has been since, well, the literal creation of the earth.

In baseball, however, that isn’t the case. The vibes that are given off for a Sunday afternoon baseball game are simply immaculate, which is why 99.9% of the time, every MLB team is on the schedule every Sunday during the season.

However, this Sunday is a bit different for the Padres, who are not taking the field today. The team completed a two-game interleague split with the Los Angeles Angels last night in a 10-2 loss.

The last time the Padres did not play baseball during the season on a Sunday is actually more recent than you may think.
