What happened: The San Diego Padres are featured on Sunday Night Baseball on July 5. San Diego enters the game seeking its first victory in nine contests.

Why it matters: The national showcase gives the Padres an opportunity to halt a slide that has pushed them below .500. A turnaround is increasingly important as the regular season approaches the All-Star break.

By the numbers: San Diego enters at 43-45 with eight consecutive losses.

What to watch: Watch whether the Padres can end their skid before returning home Monday.
