5/1/10 Milwaukee Brewers 2, San Diego Padres 1
Petco Park, San Diego, CA
Game 3 of 4
A pitchers' duel, or Rob Drake Dementia? Two effective arms battle, but a salty HP umpire's bizarre strike zone may or may not have made this the toe-to-toe confrontation this game may or may not have been.
MIL 2 9 0
SD 1 7 0
It's Mat Latos (SD) vs. Yovani Gallardo (MIL) as the Brewers try to snap the Padres' home-winning streak. Consider it snapped, but don't blame the ump.
Let me explain, without watching the game all over again. Rob Drake made at least a dozen 'questionable' calls (off the top of my head), ultimately Adrian Gonzalez and then Bud black both would be ejected in the bottom of the 8th after Gonzalez argues his 3rd strikeout of the game, his 2nd called. I could go back and watch the game again and count the number of 'iffy' called strikes, against BOTH teams, but really I still think that one thing made the difference: Yovani Gallardo's solo Home Run gave the Brewers the one-run lead that counted at the start; the Padres tied the game in the same inning, but with Rickie Weeks' solo shot a couple of innings later and Tim Stauffer's great performance for the Pads in later innings...you start to wonder how many extra innings we'd have seen if it wasn't for Gallardo's blast.
I forgot to mention, Gallardo fanned 11 batters total. Wobbly strike zone or not, he did a fantastic job and moved way up on my 'enemy starting pitchers in the NL Central to despise and admire simultaneously' list.
I really like watching Padres home games on 4SD much better than others, 4SD has the best fly-over shots of Petco and also the best inside-the-park shots.
I scored this game 2/24/11.

4/6/10 San Diego Padres 6, Arizona Diamondbacks 3
Chase Field, Phoenix, AZ
Fun game; keeping a close eye on the Padres (my 'other favorite NL team') and also scouting the D-Backs for the upcoming 4-game series with the Cubs.
SD 6 10 1
ARI 3 7 0
Chase Hedley sporting some great 3B 'hot corner' defensive plays. This was Edwin Jackson's debut as a Diamondback...he pitched well, but would soon try to forget this outing.
Bud Black's 2010 Padres are looking remarkable, 6 solid shut-out innings by the 'big guy' Chris Young and some great run support, particularly thanks to smokin' Evereth Cabrera.
Diamondbacks pitcher Esmerling Vasquez has got the most insane inside curve I've ever seen. Crazy movement.
