Jake dominated the Dodgers last weekend in San Diego. Perhaps more importantly, he seems to have gotten into their heads with Smudgegate. Here’s hoping he can work that to his advantage.

  1. Just a couple of upbeat comments:

    1) We didn’t lose yesterday.
    2) Jake is on the mound tonight!

    Go Padres!

  2. Penny has a 2.84 ERA and is 1-1 compared to Jake’s next to nothing ERA and 2-0 record. Now, if the Pads could just knock some base runners in, we’ll be good to go.

  3. #2: Mind you, that is against each team I believe. I may be wrong. I’m suffering from sleep deprevation.

  4. no Direct ty ch 4 broadcast tonight ,,, have to watch Vin and listen to 1090

  5. ok boys .. keep going …

  6. clutch hits!!!

  7. that’s my padres … 2 lob

  8. Too bad that Giles and Edmonds battled back from 0-2 counts, taking several close pitches, only to strike out on pitches way out of the zone.

  9. 8. I don’t know .. at least they didn’t swing 1 – 2 – 3 .. got his pitch count up saw a lot of pitches

  10. bunt double from Furcal

  11. this is not starting well

  12. ugly start

  13. Peavy having a hard time finding the strikezone

  14. nice way to pic up your pitcher boys … 463

  15. Nice DP to bail Peavy out there!

  16. The scoreboard doesn’t show it, but everyone’s having nice at bats so far. Keep making Penny work!

  17. a bit of luck for Hairston

  18. Grant is correct. Penny’s shoes ARE illegal.

  19. look at that, another Padres single…

  20. What’s wrong with his shoes?

  21. Anyone following the Aztec-Utah game? Stephen Strasburg has a 1-hitter with 19 strikeouts with one out in the 8th. Aztecs up 1-0.

  22. 19: That was more of an ROE than a single.

  23. Make that 21 strikeouts! He just struck out the side again in the 8th.

  24. Nice PA by Bardo. Everyone is having good PA’s. Can’t beat that.

  25. nice at bat Bardo …. you can do it JAKE

    18 what’s up with the shoes

  26. I liked taking the bunt off there, but it didn’t work particularly well.

  27. 50 pitches for Penny ….

  28. 4 LOB in only two innings. sigh…

  29. 24.

    Dude, are you being serious right now?

    That is insane!!!

  30. 29: Technically that’s only three because of the double play. Small comfort.

  31. #21: First they don’t match the rest of the team’s and second they are predominately white.

  32. Jake just does not have his stuff

  33. 31: Oh yeah, you’re right

  34. All right, looks like it’s time for Jake to go to the pine tar.

  35. 35: LOL

  36. Sounds like the Dodger fans aren’t too happy with Jones. I’m sure glad we didn’t shell out $36 mil for him.

  37. just got home…… Checking the blog before the TV????
    I’m hopeless………..

  38. rosin dirt pinetar …oh my

  39. OT: Anyone in the IGD with the Ducksnort annual?

  40. K K ..keep going

  41. Nice back-to-back strikeouts after the leadoff double

  42. nice throw Scott ..dumb base running Martin

  43. Bard ‘punched’ him away from the plate! Nice play for a catcher!!!

  44. Jake slowed some things down and got some better pitches

  45. he was damn close to being safe…even with the ball getting there 1/2 hour before him

  46. ok .. second time around …. GET PENNY !!!!!

  47. Another nice AB from Giles.
