the fact Right Center is 419 is insane! Good luck hitting home runs in that park! Good game for St. Louis so far. Lohse has been very impressive.

I assure you that statue of the illuminated whale puke behind the center field fence won't be there come next year.

Someone called in to the Dan Patrick radio show this morning saying the local Miami sports page headline was "New Fish Tank, Same Ole Marlins Stank". The show also had callers call in and give a Masters intro as Jim Nance "...as the heavens shine down on Amen's Corner....azaleas and birds greet the golfers like old friends...the pageantry of the Masters". Quite entertaining actually.
Anyway, it'll be tough against Clit Kershaw, but Go Padres tonight.
I have a feeling the Red Sox are going to disappoint me all season.
What a pitching performance by everyone today!
Anyone watching the Dodger-Padres game see Clayton Kershaw's face when he was rounding first on that double? he looked so miserable.
Longest Opening Day game in MLB history! Blue Jays vs Cleveland 16 innings! Blue Jays win!! WOO! I hope they make it as the 2nd wild card.
And in typical fashion, Manny Acta pulls Justin Masterson after eight and Chris Perez blows a three run lead and the Indians end up losing in 16. I fucking hate my god damn sports teams.
I'm gonna try and check out a game when I'm down, leaning towards Dodgers - Pirates
Drove down to SD yesterday to watch the Dodger game. Good god parking is fucked down there. Nobody knew where they were going, all these small lots were full. Finally found parking all the way by 4th and B .... For 20 dollars! Padres pretty much handed the game to the Dodgers. Then Kemp hit a 2 run bomb to seal the deal. It was funny to see all the Padre fans start turning on their team before the first game was even over.
GO DIAMONDBACKS!
Huh, we didn't have trouble parking when we went over the summer. Anyway, Petco is such a fantastic ballpark. Love the variety of microbrews.Quote:

I love it. The dodgers GIVE them the game, and then Kemp hits a 2 run homer. Sounds more like the Dodgers were the better team and took the game.
Joe Girardi, over-managing in the first inning of the first game of the season, intentionally walks Sean fucking Rodriguez to load the bases for Pena. Pena! A guy who only hits fucking home runs.
Nolan Ryan and Robin Ventura bury the hatchet. Still my favorite sports fight of all time, beating out Robert Parish punching out Bill Laimbeer, and basically any time two goalies get into a fight with each other while wearing all of the gear.
At least they came back, but yes, Carlos Pena was a bad decision. Its always a home run or a strike out, bad guy to give the option of a grand slam.Quote:

The Padres haven't had a must-win game since the end of the 2010 season.
Maybe you should read what I wrote againQuote:

Uh, I somehow missed this... but, LULQuote:

I know, it was an obscure inside joke. There is a guy on the Clipper board who has been labeling each game a "must win" for the past two weeks.Quote:

Be like me. Set the bar lower. Third place or bust. This could still get us a Wild Card game if things fall into place.Quote:
