Padres Wives sell Mystery Bags, Padres staff buy for kids

The Padres Wives were selling Mystery Bags to benefit Camp Erin the last two days. Each bag had a signed ball and an MLB authentication certificate inside.

It's nice to see the Padres family doing good work like that for a worthwhile charity. The good deeds don't end there though.

Apparently a Padres security guard bought 40 of these mystery bags and gave them to the Pad Squad to hand out to kids. If you do the math, that's 40 bags for $40... let's see $1600. Following this anonymous employees lead Sandy Alderson decided to match his generosity and bought 40 of his own. So kids got 80 free mystery bags and camp Erin received $3200.

Well done.

As Randy Jones says: "Niiiice!"

Really, the team finds so many ways to disappoint on the field, it is wonderful to hear they are continuing their always good deeds off the field. Bravo.
