The 2004 San Diego Padres season was the 36th season in franchise history. It saw the club finish with a record of 87–75, the fifth most wins in franchise history. With 87 wins, the Padres improved their win–loss record by 23 games over the 2003 season (64–98), the single largest improvement from one full season to the next in team history. The Padres also moved into their new home Petco Park, which drew a total of 3,016,752 fans to 81 home games, shattering all previous attendance marks.
Petco Park is an open-air stadium in downtown San Diego, California. It opened in 2004, replacing Qualcomm Stadium as the home park of Major League Baseball's San Diego Padres. Before then, the Padres shared Qualcomm Stadium with the NFL's San Diego Chargers. The stadium is named after the animal and pet supplies retailer PETCO, which is based in San Diego and paid for the naming rights.
