I'm not even a padres fan but this is jacked up. San Diego as a city finally gets a good owner in their history who actually wants to win & do the right thing & he dies 
Where do the padres go from here? Do they end up going back to the same old sorry madres like in most of their history? Or do they pull a 2012 ravens & find a way to win for their deceased good owner?
