Around SBN: 2012 Budweiser Shootout Entry List Released

GameThread, 5/10: Padres vs Rockies

Colorado Rockies at San Diego Padres, May 10, 2008 7:05 PM PDT


[Note by jbox, 05/10/08 6:48 PM PDT ]
Look at this line up. Gerut batting first, Giles in the three hole, Paul batting before Khalil.  This is so crazy, it might just work!

Go Padres!!!

I got an email from him letting us know about it

At least somebody that works for the Padres is willing to give Gaslamp Ball a little sliver of a scoop.

he wouldn’t be risking his job to do so. he has more authority to break player moves than i do

what does he list as his title? Just asking since I get no Pad exec emails lately.

What was that? A WIN?!!! 350/530. What a game. Alex’s little league treated us to a western metal suite tonight and it was awesome!! What a treat to witness history. We also realized that Alex has now been to 2 games and the Padres won both of them!! Which is kinda sad when you think that he’s seen more than 10% of their victories…
