The 2025 San Diego Padres season was the 57th season of the San Diego Padres franchise. The Padres competed in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member club of the National League (NL) West Division. The team played its home games at Petco Park.
With an April 16 victory over the Chicago Cubs, the Padres tied their best-19 game start in franchise history at 15–4. At the July trade deadline, the team experienced a roster makeover, trading for Ramon Laureano, Ryan O’Hearn, Nestor Cortes, Freddy Fermín, JP Sears, and All-Star closer Mason Miller. The Padres held a lead at top of the NL West on August 23, the latest they've held a lead in the division during a season since 2010; however, they finished in second place in the division behind the Los Angeles Dodgers for the second straight season.
On September 22, the Padres clinched a postseason berth for the second consecutive season and fourth time in the last six years with a walk-off victory against the Milwaukee Brewers. As the fifth seed Wild Card team, they played the Cubs on the road in the National League Wild Card Series, which they lost in three games. At the conclusion of the round, manager Mike Shildt announced his retirement.
The San Diego Padres drew an average home attendance of 42,434, the 2nd-highest of all baseball teams in the world.https://www.espn.com/mlb/attendance/_/year/2025
