Open Thread: 8/24, San Diego Padres vs. San Francisco Giants
San Diego Padres at San Francisco Giants, Aug 24, 2008 1:05 PM PDT
The last time the Padres won was August 16th. They've lost six games in a row. They're terrible. Remember when people used to make fun of the Giants because they were supposed to be so bad this season. That kind of makes me laugh now. Just goes to show that predictions in baseball rarely meet reality.

How did we end up with red anyways?
I mean we dont have any red in our Padres colors.
Do we need to make an unexecutive decision to change colors?

Agreed
When the only cool red thing left is red algae, it’s time to change it up.

And I was wearing spf 30 sunscreen. So that should tell you something. It was damn hot both days. Typical SF at night cool and windy with a chance of being harassed by Inebriated African American Homeless Gentlemen.

loving the fact that Gey is hitting in the 3 hole. what a good ball player. we really lucked out grabbing him from obscurity.
good for him too since he’ll probably parley this season in to a big contract w the yankees in the offseason.
