I really hate
the NL playoffs right now. I hate the Dodgers and I hate the Phillies. Is there some way that the air balloon could have landed on that entire stadium and crushed everyone?
That's kind of how I'm thinking.
There’s got to be a way for both teams to lose.
22 inning game?

BOOOO MANNY.
"I'm a Padre at heart. Always gonna root for the Padres. Twenty-five years [with this organization], how can't you? Next year I'm gonna be rooting like a son-of-a-gun for these guys and for Blackie ... I'm gonna be rooting for the next general manager here, rooting for the city, the fans, everybody. I think a lot of San Diego." -Kevin Towers
Well it's probably hard to teach a student who's a real dick.

Time to yank Hamels, too.
This game got away from the starters quickly.

I think they might be going nuts with music for the series...
They just played the old Motorhead Triple H theme….Ummmm, I mean…. so how is everyone tonight? What was that Lemmy song earlier?
Eli Manning has it.

I worry about getting it!

Met Jacob Hester.

They have Chargers autograph signings every Thursday at the Q.

Hester had a Padres hat on too.

Good for Jacob.
I like it when the teams support each other. Like when Philip threw out the first pitch at a Padres game.
It probably helps that both Phil’s homes, Alabama and North Carolina, don’t have baseball teams of their own.

Phil and Jake are both studs.
It makes sense that they’re friends. And that they both have good taste in sports teams.

I definitely went to the jbox school of hiding your face....
I took a few pictures in the hall ways and the pics were fine…then I hand the camera off the his assistant after our conversation & I get this blurry picture…..

Oh wow, you were serious! Awesome!
So how did the interview go and what moves will you make this off this off season if you get the position?
I think I was the minority candidate
that they act like they are interested in just to make the league happy yet the team has no interest in hiring.
Wait you were actually a GM candidate?
If so, you went to the interview wearing that?
Or you like won a contest or something?

It is true
I am Jerry DiPoto and I have infiltrated Padre land by starting not 1 but 2 Padres blogs, 1 of which involves all my Padres merch, then I have posted on this blog here for a while now to earn all your trust. I dressed down for my interview with my buddy Jeff because I knew I already had the job.
Two Padres blogs?
Sounds like the majority to me!

I am conflicted...
I would love me some west coast love and have a freeway series just to watch NY, Boston and ESPN squirm in confusion but I just cannot root for the Dodgers.
Dodgers' strength going into this series was their bullpen.
And it just coughed up 3 big runs. Not a good sign.

May have spoken too soon.
Philly bullpen’s turn to blow up now.

TBS Pitchtracker
really shows how terrible umpires are at calling balls and strikes.
In Utley’s at bat here, pitches 1 and 2 were in the exact same location. One was a ball, the other was a strike.

Still alive, the Dodgers are.
I think it would be fun to see this thing go into extras, and Lidge to blow another save.

Way back when...
When Metallica came out with And Justice for All, I never ever thought I would here “One” played at a baseball game. I am feeling way too old.
So we talking about Game 2 here too?
