I’ll Trade You Box Scores for a Time Machine

by Geoff Young on Mar 02, 2008 (24) Comments

Actual games, eh? Nice. The Padres lost on Friday and won on Saturday. Rookie Chase Headley, bidding for a spot in the San Diego outfield, homered and drove in four runs in the victory. Be sure to read a lot into that. Hey, I like having box scores to look at again, but seriously, it’s [...]
