I was told that we signed a contract when we joined SB Nation that said we had to talk about the Padres or we would face legal implications... So, ummm...

Justin Germano goes for us tonight and is set to be the shut down pitcher that we remember from earlier in the season. My birthday has come and gone, but I'm going to light some sort of controlled flame on a pastry and hope very silently for a win before blowing the flame out. Maybe beforehand, I'll gather friends and family around me and have them sing a celebratory song of yore.

GO PADRES!!! EXPERIENCE IT!!!
