It has been a long time since a series has stirred as much interest in Padres fans as this weekend's three-game set against the Dodgers at Petco Park in San Diego. Maybe you have to go back to 2015 when the Padres opened the season with what turned out to be false expectations ... or 2013 when the Yankees visited Petco Park ... or 2010, the last time the Padres finished a season with a winning record. The Padres flew home from Atlanta on Wednesday evening after posting seasons highs in hits (17) and runs (11) in an 11-2 win that earned them a four-game split with the Braves and a 4-3 road trip.
