Colorado Rockies @ San Diego Padres


You can tell these games are meaningful for the Padres as we got Dirk Hayhurst's second career start last night and Josh Geer's MLB debut tonight. It's like the Padres really want us to get our hopes up that we're still in this division race. Thanks San Diego.

What? not superior?

I’m not sure I can even begin to understand what you are saying. Speak coherently please.

I'm speaking

quite coherently. I think you need your ears checked. And possibly your mind, too.
