SAN DIEGO -- There was a notable first for the Padres on Thursday at Petco Park.
No, the franchise -- which was born in 1969 -- is still awaiting the team's first no-hitter.
This was a different kind of birth, that of a baby boy -- the first baby born at the team's downtown ballpark, which opened in 2004.
We welcomed a baby boy to the world in Palm Court Plaza earlier this evening. First baby to be born at Petco Park! ufffdufffd

Right around the fourth inning of the Padres' 5-4 win over the Giants, a boy, Levi, was born near the team store, which is located outside of the Gaslamp Gate to the ballpark.
