After winning only four games against the Mariners since 2022, the Padres complete their third season series sweep of the Seattle Mariners to take the second Vedder Cup and build significant momentum before their upcoming date with the Dodgers for first place in the National League West. Braden is here to take a look at the weekend that was in the Emerald City including a white-hot weekend for Gavin Sheets, Lucas Giolito's season debut and the continued lack of punch from the Padres Big 3. We will also be joined by San Antonio Missions broadcaster Brian Yancelson to give an update on Ethan Salas and the rest of the Missions, take a look at the pitching decisions that the Padres made throughout the weekend and, of course, we get you ready for the Padres upcoming series against the Los Angeles Dodgers
