Around SBN: Win or Lose, Boston Celtics' New Big 3 Era A Success

Padres take series, win 5-4. Everybody Loves Rays' Mound

Does that title make any sense?  Is there anyway to make it make sense?  Probably not.

I do not want to trade away anybody on this team for a mythical "big bat".  If we keep this team together they can keep winning.  I believe that.

Another great game by our Padres.  Home runs by Adrian Gonzalez, Will Venable and Chase Headley put 4 of the 5 runs on the board.  Nick Hundley gunned down another base runner. Heath Bell made himself a save. 

The best play of the game though was Aaron Cunningham's risky dive.

"I was almost begging him not to dive," Headley said. "I didn't think he had a chance."

I got this feeling while watching the recap today that we will be talking about the 2010 season years from now.

Me and oldest daughter

watching the game – I’m trying to induct her to the one true (baseball) faith. She’s had some heretical ideas, so I thought we could watch with the hats on to help things along, :)

ps could someone explain the last doyer out – game-day was a bit too cryptic

for the Doyers: Carroll blooped a single

they threw in to second and caught Russell Martin ranging past the base (though he looked plenty safe) and the lead runner was waltzing down the third base line while the play happened. Out at second, run not across the plate, game over.

I saw the replay.

He was totally out.

It was an awful call. Don’t get me wrong…I’m happy it was awful and he’s an idiot for wandering that off the base, but it was a BAD call.

Damn, we're almost the only one.

Illadelph is only 18-17. We’re sittin’ pretty at 19-13… seven games over .500 at home, six over away- Joe Morgan’s impressed by our consistency.

I've been waiting for us to be 13 games over .500 for awhile

so I could say that we’re now above .500 since the beginning of the 2009 season.

It’s pretty meaningless but I like it.

this totally reminded me of the following:

Frink: I take it from that little impressed noise that you are
       interested in purchasing that matter transporter, sir.
Homer: Ah erm, two bucks!?….. And it only transports matter!?….. Well,
       uh, I’ll give you 35 cents.
Frink: Sold! But I must warn you this devices carries a
       frighteningly high risk of catastrophic…
Homer: I said I’ll take it!

The text doesn’t do the scene justice. I recommend watching it (Fly vs Fly short from one of the Treehouse of Horror episodes).

Someday, I'll sit down with my kids and watch a Padres game.

One of them will turn to me and say, “This is the best team the Padres have ever had.” And I will say, “No, sweetie. First off, they don’t have The Tony Gywnn (but by this time, they will have another Gywnn, a good one), and they are nothing like the 2010 Padres.” We will then go sit on the porch as I reminisce about the 2010 Padres and how I saw them win the world series.
