San Diego Padres at Atlanta Braves, May 6, 2008 4:10 PM PDT
Chris Young is taking on the Braves today and I can't help but wonder how they're going to manage to lose tonight's game. I wish we were losing the games more spectacularly. I feel like we don't have enough of those super spectacular losses each year. Maybe the 22 inning one was it. I want another loss in the 9th inning on back-to-back-to-back-to-back home runs or something.
Or we could win. That would probably be better.
GO PADRES!!!

6 mil down the drain on Edmonds.
For a team obsessed on getting good value – I would say this was one of their larger f-ups lately. At least they didn’t commit for long term, on purpose.

I score Padre games by inning now
So, by my count, they won the 1st inning 1-0. Lost the 2nd 2-0. But it’s tied!
This is what we need to start doing: Bizarro scoring, drinking contests, truth or dare, daily doubles. I don’t care. Anything to make the actual final scores of these games go away.

Hairston isn’t helping his own cause, though. I guess if you lose Edmonds you have Hairston/McAnulty in left and have Gerut play center?
