Of the San Diego Padres' past six completed games, five of them have been decided by one run.
San Diego is 2-3 in those games.
Also during that span, the Padres played another one-run game that was suspended due to rain.
The Padres will hope for a bit more cushion on Sunday when they complete a four-game series against the host Miami Marlins. San Diego has won two of three games in this series, although the Marlins prevailed 3-2 on Saturday.
"This is the way it's been," Padres manager Jayce Tingler said. "I'm not going to complain. We want to play winning baseball, and I don't care if it's 1-0 or 2-1.
