is the record for douple plays in a divisional series. We will not own that record. No. Positive thoughts.
Go Padres!

This one looks better...
What'd I miss? GIDP?

Consistency. Check that off the shopping list for next season.

if they could figure out  a way to hit into 2 double plays in 1 inning i bet they would do it

That comment thing
It apparently happens to the other SB Nation blogs kinda regularly.

We rarely hit the 200 comment mark though.

by Dex on Oct 6, 2005 3:13 PM PDT reply actions  

Apparently
only Hensley knows that the Padres are in the playoffs. He forgot about that when he pitched to Mulder.
Go Padres!

by Pants on Oct 6, 2005 3:18 PM PDT reply actions  

Finally
an extra base hit!
Go Padres!

regular season carryover
That whole mentality of "We don't have to win cause the guys behind us suck" really doesn't carry over well in the post season I guess.

Feel the Focus
Concentrate! The focus surrounds all of us.
Go Padres!

by Pants on Oct 6, 2005 3:22 PM PDT reply actions  

Of course
Greene only gets to 3rd.
Go Padres!

by Pants on Oct 6, 2005 3:23 PM PDT reply actions  

Mulder's still pitching?
Didn't we break this guy's arm?

let it wash over you!

Sure! Hold Khalil there!
It's not like we're gonna ground into a double play or anything. We have all kinds of time to score.

Bunt Bunt Bunt Bunt
That way, no GIDP, unless it's a crappy bunt.  

Let's go, Miggy!

Hmmmm... Weird feeling in my stomach... What is this?

Could it be?

No
it's those bad clams you ate earlier.

GIDP
Of course he GIDPs. He just came off the bench. The coaches have been explaining how to do it all game.

by Dex on Oct 6, 2005 3:26 PM PDT up reply actions  

No Mo' Mulder
Now it's time for those Padres bats to go to work.

I just noticed
Somebody did a google blog search on the word "sensual" and got Gaslamp Ball.

It's true by the way. Gaslamp Ball is "sensual".

by Dex on Oct 6, 2005 3:31 PM PDT reply actions  

Does this mean
that Klesko will be playing in the field now?

by Pants on Oct 6, 2005 3:32 PM PDT reply actions  

Padres officials
to address injury protocol.  That was the news at the bottom of my screen.  What's that mean?

larussa calling for the hit and run...
Good call. Larussa knows his bullpen's suspect against the Padres. Try to pile it on.

by Dex on Oct 6, 2005 3:38 PM PDT reply actions  

it's almost as if...
they can learn from their mistakes.  

by jbox on Oct 6, 2005 3:39 PM PDT up reply actions  

Flannery's a dummy
Saying you have to play perfect to beat the Cardinals. How many runs have we given these guys?

Maybe if the Padres just played.

by Dex on Oct 6, 2005 3:44 PM PDT reply actions  

Do you smell that?
It smells like fried chicken...that there is a comeback cooking. And the Padres are about to serve it up in the 8th.

by Pants on Oct 6, 2005 3:47 PM PDT reply actions  

I don't smell anything
But I'll admit my allergies may have gotten to me.

OK. relax... and...

You can do it. At least Ramon can't hit into a douple play right now.

by Pants on Oct 6, 2005 3:51 PM PDT up reply actions  

Reggie Sanders subbed out
Maybe Larussa is feeling pity for us now.

focus on eating this bullpen.

Focus
Use telepathy to tell the Robot Vulcan to hit it out of the infield. A home run would be nice.

Argh!
Realistically, I guess there is NO WAY Ramon could have scored. At least that is what I saw on the radio. Right?

This is it
BIG TIME FOCUS!

Everyone touch your pélo. Let the Power of the Pélo wash over the Padres. If you have a balloon, rub it on your head to make your hair electric and thus increasing the Pélo Power.

Oh, a double play

Better hope Woody's fired up...
...or you guys are gone in 3, swept under the rug.  But who knows...Morris can be wild...and Woody was only three games under .500 this year...so anything can happen, right?

BTW, The Cards are now a game above .500 against the Padres this year...

by The True Anonymous Hero on Oct 6, 2005 4:24 PM PDT reply actions  

Bochy should've gone with my idea
Runner on first, less than two outs: Sac bunt.

You Guess
Season ain't over yet.

Focus
STLToday had this

"It's the focus," Mulder said, explaining why his postseason numbers are better than his regular season numbers. "When you're out there in the playoffs, you're more focused. That's why you see so many low-scoring playoff games."

by thenerdhater on Oct 6, 2005 6:16 PM PDT reply actions  

Hmmm...
So maybe by us focusing so much we're taking away the Padres focus? Should we unfocus?

It's difficult trying to cast fan magic.
