The 2016 San Diego Padres season was their 48th season in MLB, and their 12th at Petco Park. The Padres finished with a record of 68 win and 94 losses, and spent most of the season trading with the Arizona Diamondbacks for the last-place spot in the National League West. The Padres set multiple records for offensive futility, becoming the first team in MLB history to fail to score a run in their opening series, being outscored 25-0 in their first three games to the Los Angeles Dodgers. They also set the record for most times shutout in their first ten games (5), as well as the largest opening day shutout loss at home in MLB history (15-0 against the Los Angeles Dodgers).
