America's Pastime

The Spanos family is dead to me. They are the embodiment of what is wrong with sports in general.

Given my last venturing into LoCal, all there was were scorched hillsides and the smell of dank weed.

It makes we wonder if the Padres GM found a roster of Ferguson Jenkins type players to deal with the local environment. :wink:

Yup. I hope someone buys the team and moves it back.

As for Padres vs Dodgers. I am hopefully getting tickets this morning for the series (if they get out of wild card)

Would like the Padres as much as any remaining team in contention to win it all.

@BamaFanNKY Thank you for that. It’s exactly what the entire county is wishing for. I don’t see that happening in my lifetime though. They tore down The Murph and replaced it with a tiny little kickyball stadium.

Possible record alert: Tonight the 36-120 White Sox can become the losingest team ever as the host the Angels.

Padres closer tried to be the good neighbor in the bottom of the ninth. He did his best to blow a 4-1 lead over the Dodgers, but Manny Machado was having none of it.
Here’s the TRIPLE PLAY FTW:

SDUF, I just want you to know that I forgive you. :grin:

LA, your kindness is only exceeded by your good looks, charm and charisma.
GO PADRES. Sweep the Doyers! :muscle:t3::sunglasses:

The Angels decided to spare the White Sox last night from breaking the record.

Sell the team Arte!

It could be worse they could be the San Francisco Giants. The Giants have 29 owners (not kidding).

The Giant owners have a beautiful paid off park, own the waterfront Mission Rock development and according to Forbes are the 5th richest team in mlb. They also could care less about winning baseball games.

Amazing play. One of the best I have ever seen. The announcer was spot-on.

Now we see if I’m watching Dodgers v Padres in a couple Sundays from now. Excited to finally be back in LA during the playoffs.

Shohei has certainly brought the Dodger fans one for the history books this season. FWIW it appears he will also end the season with a batting average over .300. Power hitters don’t hit over .300.
