Open Thread 8/20: Padres vs. Hot-lanta

Dex is in Texas, Jbox probably surfing.  So I guess I'll do their job.

Starts off nice with a DJ leadoff double.  I'm going down to Petco Park today and playing softball on the field.  Man I'm psyched!!

DJ just get's under the tag!!!

Randa lookin' pretty good as of late.

Why'd Astacio choose the dark jersey?
He must be on fire?  Plus wearing the sleeves underneath the jersey.  I'd be wearing sand right now.  Can both teams wear white?

No way!
I got the Pads here on fox, now that sf has lost; now about that Padres victory....and Randa pops up to take it to the bottom of the 11th.

Not so fast
As many of us know throughout Hoffie's career, the guy is not the same in no save situations.  Think about it, Hoffie has only blown what, 2 saves this season, and look at his ERA, 3.00+, most likely coming in non save/hold situations.

Of course, if we were in the world series, or playoffs, I'd throw gut instinct away, and put the game in the hands of the best.  Save situation or not.

Go Padres!
Thanks for taking care of the Braves so far this season! Here's hoping you can get the sweep tomorrow, and then do the same to the Astros when they come into town!

Wow!!!
I missed it of course since I'm in Chicago, but my roommate called me and left me a message, "Did you see Nady's grandslam!!!??"  That was it for the message, but it sure got me up to date.  Wow!  Get out the brooms tomorrow.
