Open Thread: 9/27, Padres vs. Pirates
Pittsburgh Pirates at San Diego Padres, Sep 27, 2008 7:05 PM PDT
Congrats to Pad Squad Loxie, she accepted the Pad Squad Rookie of the Year award prior to the tonight's game. You know what that means? The Padres will probably haze her and make her dress up as a Hooters Waitress, like they do to the rest of their rookies.
Last night game of the year. I'm a little sad and a little relieved. We went to last night's game and I don't think I watched any baseball. I looked up at the screen in the Park in the Park for a second to see Brian Giles drop that easy fly ball that ended up scoring two runs. I made sure that I didn't pay attention to the game the rest of the night in the hopes that they would win.
I also got yelled at for bouncing a squishy ball off the base of the Tony Gwynn statue. Sorry T.
Good bye Padres night games. See you in 2009.
Go Padres!!

Hundley almost threw that ball over Young
that’s quite a feat.

You can clearly see Young's underwears
through his baseball pants. Feast your eyes gentlemen.

you always can
there was ocne a huge pic in the UT of him bunting and it was like BAM there’s his undies :P
I hooked up my accelerator pedal in my car to my brake lights. I hit the gas, people behind me stop, and I'm gone.

Luis Rodriguez
is awesome. If he had blonde hair he’d be starting next year.

Do the Pirate players
have to wear the t-shirt under their jersey. That’d be rad if one of them went completely sleeveless.

Padres are determined not to lose 100 games
Where did all of this Padres pride come from all of a sudden?

Headley steals bases?

Channel 4 graphic
Padres steal a season low of 38 bases.

Sitting in the bullpen must be real boring

That was a crazy throw by Hundley
Kouz is very graceful in the air, must be his high school diving skills.

I still like this old idea of mine
You play regular baseball until one team scores. Then the losing team remains on offense until they tie or go ahead. If they tie, they play regular baseball again. If they go ahead, the winning team continues to play defense until the end of the game.
by jbox on Sep 27, 2008 8:04 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
Kind of confusing
So if the Pirates are down, they stay on offense. If they tie it, we play the remainder of the game regular. If they go ahead, the padres play defense through the ninth?

I still like royhobbs' idea of MLB, WWE style
I once thought how cool would it be to have celebrity pinch runners…Kendra Wilkinson in a bikini? John Moores in tighty whiteys? Bud Black in a straight jacket. Greg Maddux, peeing on the first baseman. The Friar. the list goes on…

you gotta kill the lights and cue the music
and have an unexpected player come charging out of the tunnel though.

Sucks the last game of the year
has to be on same time as Charger’s game. Though from the number of people on the OT tonight, it wouldn’t seem there would be many more tomorrow.

I know what you mean.
Fast, but slow. Nothing much has happened, but at least they’re getting it over with quickly.

I wonder what the new Padres facility is like in the Dominican?
I imagine Sandy’s running it bootcamp style, hammering home “The Philosophy”.
Keeping the kids up for days and days, without rest, standing at the plate taking pitches. If they accidentally swing at a pitch, one of Sandy’s henchmen is right there screaming in the kid’s ear, “WHAT PART OF OBP DON”T YOU UNDERSTAND?!?

W
well, that’s it for me. No more OT’s this year. I’ll be spending tomorrow in a smoke filled, crowded ass sports bar in Portland, Oregon watching the football game with about thirty other Charger’s fans. Go 2008 Chargers! Go 2009 Padres! Somebody, please win us a championship…
