How does this one feel?
Is this one making the replies look weird?

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.

secret source:
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.

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

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!

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

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

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?

hope?

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 to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

GIDP?!!
Again??????????

HBP
We'll take it.

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".

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

by Pants on Oct 6, 2005 3:32 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

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 reply actions actions   0 recs

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

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 reply actions actions   0 recs

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 reply actions actions   0 recs

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

OK. relax... and...

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

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.

deep breath.

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.

Sad rainy gray day
Padres torment us again
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...

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

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 reply actions actions   0 recs

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.
