Open Thread: 6/22, San Diego vs. Detroit
Detroit Tigers at San Diego Padres, Jun 22, 2008 1:05 PM PDT
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
Catch a tiger by the toe...
Randy Wolf vs. Justin Verlander
Not to belabor the point, but Verlander, 25, who entered the season with a 35-17 record and 3.74 ERA for 64 major league starts, was available in 2004 when the Padres selected Matt Bush with the first pick of the draft. The Tigers selected Verlander with the second pick.
Go Padres!

Well done
Always good to see Agon swing like he can. Too bad Edgar wasn’t on base. But I’ll take the 1-0 lead. Nice to see Granderson in the 8 spot today.
Still waiting for "Baseball Today" to give the Padres some love.
He looked like a Kenyan there.

I don't know
why he insisted on throwing over more than once. It’s not like PMac is going anywhere. He’s got to be about as slow as slow can be. Mental error on Verlander as well.
Homerun and RBI triple in the series
Just ended a 9-game hit streak.
But man do you look cool running in to say that after a strikeout…

Bad throw
Error charged to 2B when it went into shallow right-center off Egon’s glove. Runner goes to third. Next batter promptly singles him in.

Ball was hit down the first base line into the visitor bullpen and got stuck under/behind the bench out there.

I was sitting next to a few Padre “fans” last night who were saying that it was Giles who made that catch that sent PMac into the stands to end the game on Friday.

im trying to find a way to blame it on barrett
maybe he called for the wrong pitch?

That pitch was just awful and Ordonez was just waiting for it.

you're absolutely right
i’m just in denial, and a well documented Barrett fan, only the opposite

Would be hilarious if Barrett recognized it
and dove forward, taking out Ordonez’s legs.

Nothing good happens with Padre plays at the plate...
We never score. We never tag anyone out. It’s amazing.
I went to the game last night
I was talking with PS Andre after the fireworks (which by the way, they look awesome from center field, way to go Padres management) and who did I get to meet???
Freelunch was there!
im still excited about the umpire shreiking at every strike call
he makes me laugh

A late rally to take this series would be, um, nice
I’m not excited about Heath’s recent homerun problem. That’s why the Mets soured on him, and I’d hate to see it come back…

On a platter....
I cringed involuntarily. Like a flashback. There was a homerun David Wright hit off Liney near the end of his time as Padre that I’m pretty sure hasn’t landed….
Barrett makes me wonder
How Hundley is doing lately

There is no tomorrow. Make it today."
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

The ball hit off the top of Barrett's foot
And… he’s run.

What is it going to take to get a catcher for this team?
"Yesterday was yesterday. Today is today.

Looks like the ball changed direction off his foot on the replay
Barrett was sure it hit him as he didn’t even bother to run.
