The San Diego Padres will spend the offseason wondering what went wrong.
The high-spending Padres were eliminated from postseason contention on Friday night despite a 3-2 win over the Chicago White Sox, a finality that prompted Manny Machado to give teammates a postgame pep talk.
\"We did what we were supposed to do, but a little too late,\" Machado said. \"We\'re going to grow from this. ... We\'re capable of playing better baseball than we did this year.\"
