Padres beat Rockies 7-6, fans lose finger nails

Photo

I was listening to the game on the drive home and I was relieved to hear it was 4-0 Padres.  From everything I heard Jon Garland was pitching a hell of a game.  In my 5 minutes of travel the Rockies scored 3 times on two errors and maybe a hit that should have been an error.  I quickly turned off the radio and banished myself from spectating.  Every once in a while I would get up enough courage to check the score and we'd be hanging on to that one run lead, so I'd quickly turn it off again.

After I was sure the game was over, I went back and watched the last few innings. Things started to get crazy in the 8th and 9th.   Matt Stairs hit a two run bomb.  Then the Rockies answered back.with a run of their own.  Heath Bell came in the bottom of the 8th to record the last out.  Then he took his first at bat of the year, working the count full with the bases loaded -- my DVR stopped there.  So this post stops here, I'm recording the replay to see what I missed.

Go Padres!  Nooner tomorrow, be there!

Also worth noting:

Padres pull even with the Braves and go up half a game on the Reds. Two back on the Phillies.

This is the best way I can describe what I saw:

Rockies fan 1: Oh, look, I got a letter from Matt Stairs!

Rockies fan 2: Well, what are you waiting for, open it!

*opens letter

Dear Rockies fans,
Sit down, and shut the fuck up.

Disrespectfully yours,
Matt Stairs

Rockies fan 1: Oh.

Disappointed that MLBN

didn’t show (or even mention) Heath’s bases-loaded AB. I wanted to see that. Maybe the Baseball Tonight guys will have it.

Heater being Heater

Workin’ the count full and hot smash to RF.

The dugout was rolling in LOLs.

They showed it live and gave him a ton of credit for ripping that ball.

They were talking about him borrowing batting gloves, bat, helmet, etc. They were on it.

I was at the mercy of Quick Pitch...

I didn’t have access to MLBN when it was going on live.

This morning on ESPN

The only clip they showed of the game was the final play. Then it was on to the Yankees.

I can't believe I fell asleep watching...

I got the lonoong scratchy fingernails to prove it!

Heath's AB

Totally LOL-ing that whole time. Was weird seeing him up there. I think part of it too was because the guys in the dugout were all giggling like little girlies.
