Padres typically don't play well on Father's Day

Father's Day is quickly approaching.  This year it lands on June 21st, so don't forget.  If your father is a Padres fan you'll likely be looking for something related to the team to get him.  May I suggest a Petco Park print from our good friends at Ballpark Blueprints?  This isn't some cheesy poster, this is tasteful piece of artwork people!  Jonny got one a few months ago and hung it in his study, that's how you know it's classy.  You can frame this like Austin Hedges frames pitches outside the strike zone.

Padres record on Father's Day

Since we're on the Father's Day subject and the Padres are tied to that day due to their name, let's reexamine their record on Father's Days going back to 1969.  It's not very good.  The team is 21-25, a 45.65% winning percentage.  You'd think that the Padres would play their balls off for their namesake but they don't seem to bother.  See for yourself.
