The San Diego Padres will continue their pursuit of the No.1 spot in the NL West, gunning for a series win against the San Francisco Giants on Sunday at Petco Park. The Padres suffered their second loss in three games after witnessing a career night from Giants outfielder Grant McCray. The rookie slugger belted two homes and posted five RBIs to power his team to a 6-3 win. The loss has hampered San Diego’s momentum as they emerge as the biggest threat to the Dodgers for the NL West title with barely three weeks left in the regular-season schedule. Already out of playoff contention, the Giants still aim to finish their 2024 MLB season with a winning record. Right now, San Franciso is three games below .500 with a 70-73 record, but claiming another victory over the Padres on Sunday will move them two games from achieving their modest goal.
