Padres' Win Streak Ends Against Marlins 7-6

The San Diego Padres narrowly missed an eighth consecutive victory, losing 7-6 to the Miami Marlins after a controversial overturned home run call in the ninth inning. The Padres had been on a hot streak, winning 16 of their last 18 games, driven by strong performances from players like Manny Machado and Ha-Seong Kim. Despite the loss, the Padres showed resilience with late-inning rallies in previous games, including a 6-2 win on Friday and a 9-8 win on Saturday. Jake Burger's consistent home runs and Jesús Sánchez's critical hits were pivotal for the Marlins, who managed to end the Padres' seven-game win streak. The Marlins exploited early errors by Padres starter Dylan Cease, scoring five runs in the first two innings. Despite the loss, the Padres maintain a strong road record and the best team batting average in the NL.
