Man
Is it just me or does Theriot step on 2nd before he has the ball and make the turn

I sometimes think second base umps give that one.

88 through 7 for Padilla
87 through 7 for Lilly last night.
Difference is a 4-run lead instead of a 1-run lead
So you're saying Padilla gets taken out? :)

6 run in about 10 minutes.

Even if jinxes exist
Announcers are allowed to talk about no-hitters in progress. It’s their damn job.
OK, true, true.
It’s our fault for listening!

Listened to Edwin Jackson's.
I honestly thought the Blank announcers would play along, but they shat all over it.
And while I’m not a jinx believer that’s one tradition that somehow seems more honorable than others to me.

Jinxes, the hot hand, “lucky” talismans. All well documented sports fallacies.

Pitching and defense Padres

my contract clearly states I do not have to do any calisthenics I deem unnecessary.
Google before you Tweet. It's the new Think before you Speak.
You just have to pass the arbitrary fitness test before Shanahan will let you play.
People don't think it be like this, but it do.
Hah, Pads are falling apart!
I think that front-runner pressure is beginning to get to them. This is where our experience comes into play!
Looks like the Padres switched teams with the Dodgers right after Miggy's home run yesterday
Patience is for those who die waiting for something to happen
LeBlanc is still in the game?
Bud Black needs to wake up.
GEETER

I don't think he praised him so much as just described what he did.
I didn’t detect much praise, honestly.

What is it with this team and breaking for the plate when they can’t possibly score?

So, if Padilla can do the soap bubble , why couldn't Haegar do something?
Nothing to go with the knuckler?

they are really getting fooled by the eephus
Adam Morrison has more rings than Lebron, Bosh, and Wade combined?

Carroll is going to screw Padilla's CG here!
Don’t take him out Joe, lol.
"Stop exploding you cowards!!!"
And has quite the big stick.

Hall of fame manager here.
Only Joe Torre would warm up Sherrill, Dotel, Kuo, AND Broxton while his starter is pitching a CG SO with a 5-run lead.

A two-hitter for Padilla
in more ways than one.

So if we assume Ellis is our starting catcher next year at $410,000, this is maybe a $6M or $7M savings to get a starting pitcher.
The assumption that Martin's Dodger career is over because the Dodgers won't want to pay for an injured player.
I’d argue that if they can get discount on Martin, they’ll still sign him.
Agreed on that
and also agreed that they would never willingly enter a season with A.J. Ellis as the starting catcher.

The bats are alive and well. Asmus is calling one hell of a game. It’s all coming together. Keep it going.

a little standing O
at my house for Padilla and the “Soap Bubble” Well done and for one night who cares about the standings. I love baseball and the Dodgers. Let’s go get them tomorrow and strat the roll to the top
Same here. I high-fived my son.
Worth keeping him up to see that, but even so, a quick game. Nice.
