LOS ANGELES — It was touted as the biggest series of the month. It was billed as a potential passing of the torch, with the San Diego Padres threatening to win the National League West for the first time in 19 years. Instead, Sunday’s finale ended in a three-game sweep — and a relatively convincing one, at that.

Fernando Tatis Jr. is still confident of Padres making a comeback despite being swept by the Dodgers this week.

The Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres have one of the more bitter rivalries in baseball. Even the managers seem to have some beef.

After taking down the Padres and winning the season series on Saturday night, the Dodgers retake possession of first place in the NL West.

A solid effort by Blake Snell coupled by several Padres mistakes allow the Dodgers to take a 6-0 win and sole possession of first place in the NL West.
