We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

Petco Park — The DID YOU KNOW section states the longest game was 22 innings on April 17, 2008, which is correct, but the STATS section gives a different duration (6:18 vs 6:16). The correct duration is 6 hours and 16 minutes.
Petco Park — The DID YOU KNOW section says Tim Lincecum threw the park's first no-hitter on July 13, 2013. This is incorrect; the first no-hitter at Petco Park was thrown by Joe Musgrove of the Padres on April 9, 2021.
San Diego Stadium — The stadium was temporarily renamed 'Snapdragon Stadium' for 10 days in December 2011.
San Diego Stadium — The original scoreboard was replaced in 1978 by the first full-color outdoor scoreboard ever built.
Swinging Friar — The LORE section states the costumed mascot is known as Sam, but the current and primary mascot is officially named The Swinging Friar or Friar, not Sam.
Seventh Inning Stretch — The LORE section states the Petco Park view includes 'Mission Valley,' but Petco Park is located in downtown San Diego's East Village, not near Mission Valley; the skyline view is of downtown, not Mission Valley.
Seventh Inning Stretch — The DID YOU KNOW section claims the tradition is 'strictly observed at home games, serving as a mandatory pause,' which is an invented claim; the Seventh Inning Stretch is a widespread tradition observed at virtually all MLB games, not a Padres-specific mandat
Trevor Hoffman Saves — The entry states Hoffman retired with the highest career strikeout rate of any reliever, but Billy Wagner had a higher K/9 at the time of Hoffman's retirement.
Jake Peavy Cy Young — Peavy is not the second starting pitcher to win two consecutive World Series titles with different teams; Jack Morris and others have done it.
Jake Peavy Cy Young — Peavy is not one of exactly ten players to have won back-to-back World Series on different teams; the number is not canonically fixed at ten.
Bud Black Tenure — Bud Black's tenure ended in 2015, not 2020. He was fired mid-season in 2015 and replaced by Pat Murphy.
Bud Black Tenure — The Padres did not win the NL pennant in 2020; they lost in the NLDS to the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 2020 NL pennant was won by the Dodgers.
A.J. Preller Era — The entry states Preller assumed the role of General Manager in January 2014, but he was actually hired as General Manager on August 6, 2014.
A.J. Preller Era — The entry says Preller followed the departure of 'Jed Hoyer and Buford,' but the correct name is Josh Byrnes, not 'Buford.'
