The Padres return home from their first road trip of the 2024 season to start their second homestand as the club continues to celebrate Petco Park’s 20th Anniversary. The three-day, three-game stretch begins Monday, April 8, when the Chicago Cubs come to town. With large crowds anticipated, fans are encouraged to arrive early and consider utilizing the Trolley, COASTER or ride share to America’s #1 Ballpark.

During Monday’s pregame ceremony, the Padres will present 10 high school seniors with the Johnny Ritchey Scholarship award worth $10,000 each. The Johnny Ritchey Scholarship is designed for students that have encountered and, more importantly, have overcome significant personal adversities in his/her life and have used these challenges to strengthen themselves in their pursuit of higher education. Following the ceremony, the students will take the field with Padres starters prior to the game.

Season Ticket Members are encouraged to arrive early on Monday to watch the Padres take batting practice. Members can enter through East Village Gate as early as 3:00 p.m., with select Members receiving a credential to sit in designated seating closer to the field. Custom Rawlings baseballs with golden stitches will be mixed in during Padres batting practice, and the lucky fans who catch or retrieve the golden balls will be able to redeem them for a replica Padres jersey of their choice at the Padres Team Store.
