Philadelphia went into its series against the Dodgers on Monday with a two-game lead over the Mets in the East, but after losing all four games in LA, the Phils have dropped one game back of first-place New York.
Philadelphia managed only two hits in Thursday's 3-1 loss.
The Padres have the second-worst record in the National League. They beat Milwaukee 3-2 on Thursday, but haven't won consecutive home games since mid June.
