San Diego's been waiting for a feeling like this since that one team left. There's nothing like the incredible joyous agony of sports and I cannot WAIT for Friday
Bob Melvin "I tend to be a high road guy & I'm going to, but problem I have is Joe Musgrove is a man of character. Questioning his character...that's the part I have a problem with & I'm here to tell everybody Joe is above board anyone I know...reception he got was not warranted
Bob Melvin says the Padres are "extremely sentimental" about Ha-Seong Kim being a gold glove finalist
"I don't know there's a better defensive shortstop that I've seen... this year...defensively kind of our heartbeat."
One of the greatest wins in San Diego sports history!!!!!!
What a damn game by these SDSU Aztecs and on to their first Eight 8!
Drink, San Diego!!!!!!!
This win was for DJ Gay, for Xavier Thames, for JJ O'Brien, for Matt Mitchell, for so many heart and soul Aztecs that helped build this program to what it is. For Steve Fisher. Incredible, Brian Dutcher!
#Padres
are back home and so is Tatís. Fernando says he's put on 10 lbs of muscle, Bob Melvin says no update yet on when he picks up bat, waiting for imaging scans
Downtown San Diego is going nuts. Wish it could have been a real celebration in a packed ballpark and on the streets.
This city, after some bad ownerships and vacating teams , deserve it like no other.
Joe Musgrove "the last thing I told them was I'm going to pitch the game of my life."
And he certainly did. Some comments from
@itsFatherJoe44
on Showalter and his own performance tonight
A year ago, at this time, news broke from
@AdamSchefter
that the Chargers were abandoning a market that loved them. After careful consideration, I'd like to say: Kiss my ass. You reap what you sow. Thank you
A Padres team with this many all-stars being no-hit by this terrible Dbacks team would qualify as one of the worst losses in franchise history. My goodness
Scherzer, DeGrom, Kershaw.
A questionable Padres offense through the regular season is having a hell of a resume ride through the post-season thus far.
The PA announcer at LA coliseum says "first down, Los Angeles, time out, Los Angeles. etc. So how do they handle it next week when they host the Chargers? First down, landlord, first down, tennant? I have no idea.
Philip Rivers on hostile crowd "We definitely have gotten used to it. It's tough...but being someone that remembers what it used to be like in home games, it's pretty bad. It's disheartening."
#SanDiego
Fernando Tatis J., "This is a special group, this is a special group. I feel like this is a growing pain, we're just getting started...we're still a virgin."
Curious as to how many San Diegans officially "mutually parted ways" with the Chargers today with the official news on Philip Rivers, the last remaining link here.
Joe Musgrove says he chose the
#44
as someone that grew up a fan of Jake Peavy
"Going to Padres games and seeing Peavy, snot flying & grunting and fist-bumping, that's just kind of who I felt I was as a player...it's special for me to wear 44."
