It's quiet in San Diego....

[PCIntern]

Just saying.

[Trenzalore]

1. Hopefully quiet there tomorrow as well

[Diamond_Dog]

2. What a pitching performance by Zack Wheeler!

[BigmanPigman]

3. Why?

Is it due to the high temps today? I haven't listened to local news...

[JoeOtterbein]

4. Here:

Phillies 2
Padres 0

[BigmanPigman]

5. Oh, GOOD!

I'm from Phila.

6. We're used to this. It's always 'missed it by this much'.

Our Soccer and Rugby teams do well, though.

[First Speaker]

10. Oh well...you always have your football team...

[haele]

11. Heh...

Alex Spanos has always been a wannabe Angelino glitterati. It's rather hard to be a glitterati in San Diego.
Tho' the Fairbanks Ranch crowd and some La Jolla folks try really hard.
San Diego is not a place to be if you want to be seen.

7. They Also Lost Game 1 Against Dodgers

And this is a best of 7 series

[PCIntern]

8. And the Phillies won Game 1 of its two series.

9. It's Quiet In Philadelphia

Just saying.

I'm not a fan of the Padres. I just found the smack talk a little premature.

It's a 7 game series, and Game 1 doesn't decide the series, any more than it did in the Dodgers series, otherwise the Phillies would be at Dodger Stadium right now. And this series is Best of 7.

[PCIntern]

12. "Smack talk"? Really?

I was being polite with a touch of humor, my friend. And yes: I know it’s a best of 7.

[PCIntern]

13. It was a five game series, my good friend.

As we have too often said here in Philly: there’s always next year.

[SoCalDavidS]

14. I Wasn't Rooting For The Padres

I wanted the Dodgers, and they proved that the regular season record doesn't necessarily mean anything.

I do think that both the main League series should be Best of 7 though.

15. Keith Olbermann a few days ago

Had a fantastic diatribe against this entire system. If you go to his podcast and check the i-button from about 10 days or so ago you can find the synopsis and then listen to it. It was brilliant as per usual.

[triron]

16. Pretty ridiculous to me that a team trailing by 22 games

At end of season wins it all in one series. Dodgers had 14-5 record against padres.
