The Chicago Cubs dropped the series finale against the San Diego Padres by a score of 4-2. The Cubs’ bats went silent, and the bullpen issued too many free passes against a stout Padres lineup.

Manny Machado recorded a pair of two-out RBIs and Fernando Tatis Jr. also had two RBIs, lifting the host San Diego Padres to a 4-2 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday afternoon.
