    Not to look too far ahead, but if we can get this one today, we might have some things lining up for us... check this out for Saturday.

    Win this one today, and we've got two consecutive games to come with Oswalt and Clemens against clearly lesser pitchers.

    EDIT: Should've checked the last page. My bad.

    He sits all day games following night games.

    Sick, sick play by Walker on Willy.

    The Padres unis aren't "really" retro. They are the current unis with the old color scheme. The hats ARE retro though.

    That's usually the case but not always. He played last Saturday which was a day game after a night game. But we had the off day on Monday so that might have something to do with it.

    Hey, hey, hey, it's Matt Albers. I hope he can keep up the good stuff he had in relief.

    Really? The lettering looks very similar to current jerseys except for the trim. All the padres unis of that era that I've seen has the lower case letters.

    Check page, 11 or so, iirc. Posted a link to the jerseys.

    Albers settled down nicely there after the 0-2 meatball to Cameron. His pitches all have so much movement, it's silly.

    Clay Hensley's mom & a bunch of his peeps are sitting at the table next to me at BW3. Nice lady. Was wondering why half the people in here were Pads fans.
