Padres take beat the Braves in the lucky 13th

It took 13 innings, but the Padres finally managed to muster up enough offense to beat the Atlanta Braves tonight. Most teams are able to score enough runs to decide a game well within the allotted nine innings, but the Padres love to take their time when it comes to winning games. Lollygaggers.
They lollgygag to first base. They lollygag around the bases. They lollygag diving after line shots into the outfield before lollygagging a throw to double off a lollygagger late getting back to the bag.
Incidentally, did you see that play? Chris Denorfia is a man. He's got a pair of testicles and probably lots of hair in his armpits.
Don't hate, but I got to sit right near Philip Rivers and Jacob Hester tonight. They were very polite. I asked Rivers how he managed to go out on a school night, what with having a basketball team full of kids at home. He said Hester's wife runs her house like a day care so he could have GNO. They're just normal dudes too. They do GNO just like we do once a month.
Padres go for series victory tomorrow. Have we turned the corner? Signs point to yes.
GO PADRES!!!

Don't leave out Cory "I HAVE BIG BALLS" Luebke
He made some gutsy defensive plays to keep the Braves from advancing the lead men.
Ehhhh, I don't deserve a signature...

That's nice the PR gets a Girls Night Out.
The National League West title was all but a lock,
Then they lost 10 in a row, ‘twas like a punch in the jock!

You looked tired tonight.
I could tell it wasn’t just Elliot who wanted to go to bedsies.
I need new pants.
I believe that we will win.

To answer your question in the OT
Yes I made it. It certainly helps having a cell phone that can shoot 720p video.

He needs to learn how to win

i'm not sure he can keep it up
K rate is pretty miniscule. fortunately, he’s getting a ton of ground balls and not giving up free passes. a 2009 kevin correia-like contribution would be swell and doesn’t seem out of reach.

Do you really love walkoffs
or are you just saying it because you saw it

I didn't see it.
I was on the bus home from the bar watching Gameday on my phone. I love walkoffs, because walkoffs mean winning.

Well, you've peaked, Dex.
You can’t sit next to anyone better than PR17.
You’re done. Enjoy your twilight years and prepare to hang it up.

Anyone see Moseley's interview?
He looked happy even though he’s still winless
by Ilikecheeserolls on Apr 25, 2011 11:24 PM PDT reply actions
He's on a team where he's getting the chance to start every day
I’m not surprised since he’s been a long-reliever/spot-starter over his career.
Ehhhh, I don't deserve a signature...
Couldn't take that smile off his face
Didn’t know ballplayers could be that happy

And the team won the day I pitched, I wouldn’t give a flying flub about any win stat. Glad to see Moseley has his priorities straight.

Exactly
That’s why the Padres were successful last year and hopefully turn it around this year. You can tell everyone’s bought into the team mentality and that’s really refreshing.
Bud Black is the man.

Because...
You’d be well respected enough that measurements of your performance no longer count for or against you?
I'd be concerned with measurements of my performance.
Since it is a business after all. But, not with the wins stat.

on the other hand.
Headly looked sad/ pissed when everybody were celebrating..
I get the impression
He’s still not fully over the illness that kept him out of the lineup. He was probably exhausted.

Interesting pics, but
I’m not so sure I’m comfortable with Weisbarth being so close to players with his hand in his pants. He might be trying to control his PFOB, which is understandable, but some might think he’s diddling.
Why ask a failed romance to come watch your successful one? You know, that's like inviting the Seattle Mariners to a World Series game. It's just weird for everyone.
Which, to the unknowing fan, could explain all the white stuff on Luddy's face.

I'm still on a Padres win high
I’m just so excited!
