Open Thread: 9/24, Padres vs. Dodgers
San Diego Padres at Los Angeles Dodgers, Sep 24, 2008 7:10 PM PDT
What was your favorite part about yesterday's game? I think mine was either the suicide squeeze or the ball that dropped between Giles, Edgar and Adrian. If I had to choose I think I'd pick the suicide squeeze it was just so effortlessly executed.
I wish the Padres would be trying suicide squeezes, hidden ball tricks and that sort of thing. It'd make watching these games so much more exciting. It'd also freak out other teams. "These Padres are f'n crazy! They've got nothing to lose and they just want to F us in the A."
I've never seen much of Manny Ramirez because I hated the Red Sox and couldn't stomach watching them play. Seeing him play now, he seems in complete control. Where other hitters let the pitcher dictate what is going to happen. Manny just seems dangerous in the batters box.
I was really enjoying the Matt and Mudd play by play last night. Matt said something about how it looked like Manny was hitting balls behind Dave and Busters. He's just so casual as he drives balls.
Beat the Dodgers! Go Padres!!

At the time I thought there was no way it was Peavy's wife
because she was bigger, but I didn’t know she was pregnant. Interesting…
i saw her while she was pregnant
she still looked small so i don’t think you’d call her bigger seeing her in a car

When he did that stunt where he hung in a glass box with no food, and some snarky Brits decided to screw around with him and hung a bag of fast food from a remote helicopter, and flew it circles around his little cube.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.

His official stats...
say he’s 6 feet tall and weighs 190…more like 5’9" and 160 I say
How did his NOMAH-NESS steer clear of the Mitchell Report???
He has WAY too much power for someone his size and he’s always tearing something somewhere on his body.
