Sunday felt like the low point of the San Diego Padres season...until today happened. Losing two in a row to the Washington Nationals was bad because they’re the worst team in the National League if you look at the win totals.
But losing to the Pittsburgh Pirates tonight is probably worse because it’s coming off two losses in a row at home to a bad team and the Pirates entered today playing worse than Washington was playing when they started that series in San Diego.
Pittsburgh was 1-12 in their last 13 games entering tonight. The Nationals were 3-10 entering last Friday.
