We found cheap tickets to see the San Diego Padres play at PETCO Park

23 games into the 2025 regular season, the San Diego Padres are one of baseball’s biggest surprises.Sporting a 16-7 record — which has the team tied with the high-spending Dodgers and Mets for the MLB’s highest winning percentage — Mike Shildt’s squad is firing on all cylinders having won series against the Braves, Guardians and Cubs.Fernando Tatis Jr.

is tearing the hide off the ball batting .349 with eight home runs and 17 RBI.Manny Machado, Xander Bogaerts and Luis Arraez are quietly putting together All-Star campaigns.

On the hill, starting pitchers Michael King and Nick Pivetta are delivering in a big way while closer Robert Suarez has been lights out.Plus, who knows what Jackson Merrill’s talent ceiling is? The sky’s the limit for the 22-year-old phenom.And, while all of the above may hardly come across as a surprise to San Diegans since all of the aforementioned players are some of the best in the game, they’re shocking fans outside of SoCal because the team didn’t spend like crazy over the offseason like their NL West counterparts (cough, cough Dodgers and Diamondbacks, cough, cough).“Winners find solutions,” Shildt, 56, said.“That’s what we look to do every day and so it’s a club that has a lot of different pieces, can beat you in a lot of different ways.”If you want to see if the competitive club live, tickets are available for all upcoming home games at PETCO Park.At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on tickets for any one home game was $13 including fees on Vivid Seats.That’s cheaper than a Bud Light at the ballpark (they start at $14.99).Other games start anywhere from $14 to $112 including fees.Best of all, we didn’t even mention all the exciting giveaways the Padres have planned for this year.Should you plan your trip accordingly, you could score a free Tony Gwynn rookie bobblehead (April 29), Fernando Tatis Jr.
