Baserunning errors hurt Padres in series finale against Nationals

The San Diego Padres fell short in their series finale against the Washington Nationals on May 31, losing an opportunity to score due to critical baserunning mistakes. After a strong seventh inning where Ty France hit an RBI-double, the Padres struggled to capitalize on scoring chances. Pinch-hitter Miguel Andujar struck out while running to second base, sliding past the bag to end the inning. The Padres now prepare to face the Philadelphia Phillies, aiming to bounce back after being swept in their previous matchup.
