[padrefanforever]

Well it's 8am in San Diego, and I'm at work getting ready for game 1 to start......... I heard the top of our line up today and it's been switched up like it was at the end of the season........could be good, could be the end ......

Dave Roberts -- leading off, legs feel "great"
Ryan Klesko -- batting 2nd since he had some results there walking
Loretta batting 3rd to protect Klesko
Giles clean up.....forcing them to pitch to our only "star"
Sweeney
Hernandez
Greene
Randa - .435 hitter at Busch over the last 3 years
Peavy


GO PADRES !!!!
and to the rest of you PADRE FANS

It's crazy when you think about it that the game starts at 10 am pacific time, hah. I shall be here, most likely feeding updates to you guys.

Peavy and Carpenter-what a matchup. I'm all tingling inside.

So we got screwed on that call at 1st....... then Bochy doesn't bunt runners to 2nd and 3rd with no outs..........uh.....hello.......small ball......score runs.......don't make the same errors now Boch.......COME ON PADRES !!!

[DirtyKash]

UGH...what a disaster. Mark Sweeney should've handled that grounder.

Khalil has taken two pitches in his two at-bats and is 0-for-2. TAKE SOME PITCHES!!!

[padrefanforever]

Well if we're not going to play fundamental ball on both sides of the equation it's not going to be a series............. this is brutal.......and WTF is Sweeney starting for anyway ?

Dang, I thought that was a sure xb-hit but Edmonds got there quick. Why haven't they taken Carpenter out yet? It's clearly over.
