Padres will have home-field advantage in wild-card rematch with Cubs

The San Diego Padres have secured a wild-card playoff rematch against the Chicago Cubs at their home stadium, Petco Park. This is the first time in Padres history that they will host a postseason game against the Cubs. The Padres beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 10-7 on Saturday, securing the No. 4 seed in the National League playoffs.

They will host every game in a best-of-three Wild Card Series against the Cubs, which will begin on Tuesday. The Padres are excited about playing in front of their home crowd and are determined to bring their best game in what promises to be a highly competitive series. The Cubs, who defeated the Padres 2-1 in a Wild Card Series last year, will be looking to avenge that loss.

The Padres' Manny Machado, who has hit 30 home runs in three different seasons with the team, is eager to start the postseason at home.
