still battling…
Giants narrative, something about key pick ups, resurgent veterans, big absence from the playoffs, stellar pitching, perserverance, rah-rah, old school crap
Padres narrative: picked to be last by everyone, despite leading the division for 5 months, no respect, have a predictable slump given the razor-thin margin they have, recover, get should have been knock out punch from cubbies (1984 now even), but rally, amazingly…

Just want to give a call out to Big Lud for getting us off to a good start
great running catch to end the first and keep it scoreless and then the home run to get us going offensively. where need more of where that come from the next two or three days.
I am glad the Padres won.
I am sad for my girlfriends that are there.
She said she was glad to get out of AT and T.
Scared for her personal safety.
Dumbass Giant fans.

You know, you can say a lot of things about SD fans, about being bandwagon or fair weather or what have you. But at least we don’t tend to threaten fans from opposing teams who come to our ballpark.

Though I should add
I’m living in LA and have gone to Dodger Stadium numerous times in my Pad gear. I’ve never had a problem.
I wear the Taco hat...
It tends to depend on how the Dodgers are doing
This year-no worries. Wear Padres gear, we got no problems.
The years when the Dodgers own us, watch out. People get drinks dumped on them, cussed at, etc. And that was on the Field Level.
"Savvy Chicks Dig the Bullpen"
Don't the Padres nearly always own the Dodgers? :)
I’ve been there a number of times over the past mutter 20+ years…guess I’ve been lucky!

As a San Diego sports fan I’m ready to finally win a championship. And if its going to happen, wouldn’t this be the way for us to do it?
This is the perfect beginning and middle part of the story I want to tell my kids about one day when I’m telling them about how San Diego finished with a fairy tale ending by winning its first championship…..with teams not named the Gulls or the Sockers

awesome game, had it on in the background during a party
but ultimately, it just makes me wonder, if you’re gonna show up and beat the crap outta Matt Cain (who is pitching as good as anyone in the world) why couldn’t you score two runs against the Cubs in a game?? This could have been the pennant clincher!
Finally coming down off that post-win adrenaline rush.

The Padres really need to jump on Zito early
so they can give the back end of that bullpen a rest. Webb, Frieri, Thatcher, and Mujica better bring their A-game.

Gotta say, the coaching staff hit the bullseye with defensive placement today
so many XBH that were flagged down by guys already right in the zone.
