Game 105 1975 - @Astros 8 Padres 4
Jose Sosa becomes the first Astros player in the 14-year history of the franchise to hit a home run in his first major league at-bat. The relief pitcher belts a three-run homer off Danny Frisella during an 8-4 victory over the Padres.
Game 103 1976 - @Reds 13 Padres 8 (game 1)
The Reds score 13 runs in the first 3 innings, setting a season high for runs allowed by the Padres
Game 104 1988 - Reds 2 Padres 0
I am in attendance for yet another loss, this one at the hands of a dominating Tom Browning, who allowed only 4 hits on the night. Jimmy Jones and Mud Grant only allowed 2 runs, but the Padre bats were silent that night.
Game 104 2000 - Padres 9 @Pirates 8
Ruben Rivera hits a grand slam in the 7th inning to lead the Padres to victory and kick off a 6 game win streak, the longest of the 2000 season.
Game 102 2015 - Padres 8 @Mets 7
Left fielder Justin Upton hits a three-run, ninth-inning homer to give the Padres a come-from-behind, 8–7 win over the Mets in a rain-delayed game at Citi Field in New York. The Padres were a strike away from losing before the delay interrupted Upton’s at-bat.

Left-hander Dave Dravecky pitches the ninth one-hitter in Padres history, shutting out the Dodgers on one-hit and four walks with four strikeouts in a complete-game, 12–0 win at San Diego Jack Murphy Stadium.
