When the Padres and Dodgers face-off for the first time this season, the rivalry between the two teams separated by just 123 miles were put on hold before the first pitch was thrown.

After tragedy broke out Monday morning following a shooting at a San Diego mosque that left five dead, the Padres and Dodgers held a moment of silence to honor those who heartbreakingly passed away.

Among the five dead included two teenaged gunmen, police sources told The Post Monday.

One of the victims was a mosque security guard who “played a pivotal role in assisting, this could have been worse,” said a San Diego police officer at the press conference.

The suspects, believed to be aged 17 and 19, died from self-inflicted gunshot wounds, police said during a press conference.

The Dodgers entered Monday’s game, the first of three straight, with a half-game lead in the NL West over the Padres. Despite struggles from both teams — primarily on the offensive side — the Dodgers and Padres are still considered among the beat teams in the MLB.
