Open Thread: 7/19, San Diego vs. St. Louis

San Diego Padres at St. Louis Cardinals, Jul 19, 2008 12:55 PM PDT


The game starts at 12:55 and is on Fox. I'm just watching some TWIB before the game and they showed a shot of all the Hall of Famers waiting to take the field before the All-Star game.  Every one was wearing their teams cap... except the tallest most visible HOF'er Dave Winfield.

The Pads are only 10.5 back from the sub .500 division leader. They've lost 4 in a row. So there's hope? Nope.

Go Padres!!

The Wolf

I really hope The Wolf has a great outing today so we can lure some sucker into giving us something of value for the guy.

Does anyone have the game on Fox?

I’m on Time Warner Cable in San Diego, but have the Angels/BoSox game. Are we this bad that we don’t even get the TV coverage for an away game?

I'm not used to seeing the word "double" next to Greene's name

unless it’s used in the phrase “double play”, as in “grounded into a double play”

New ways to lose

Pitching around Ludwick to get to Pujols

by strummer on Jul 19, 2008 2:56 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

we're always willing to help

because that’s the way this team is.

“Helping opposing teams win” is the Padres new motto.

a silver lining...I think...is that

at least we have been hitting in this series. The last two losses were on the pitchers because we gave them support and they couldn’t hold it.

by kdukat on Jul 19, 2008 3:59 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

By the time the pitching gets a handle

(if it ever does), the hitting will disappear. :(

Yeah, but... it only took eight pitches to retire the 9th

ouch!
