Christ. We’re never getting rid of him. Just pick up the option now.

what if he hits a home run
— ryan ⛓️ (@ryanmtweets) May 2, 2019

Ian Kinsler HR gives the Padres a 1-0 lead. On a side note, having 3 HRs and 3 RBI in May is a pretty incredible stat for a lineup regular.

All the way to the sun?
— William the Keg Washer (@LybargerBrewery) May 2, 2019

Manny Machado, you may have heard, is good at defense.
— AJ Cassavell (@AJCassavell) May 2, 2019

I've never seen a player like Manny Machado before.
— Rich (@rich_roberts) May 2, 2019

Credit to @bravesorganist Mathew Kaminski on coming up with creative in game music selections esp opposing hitters. Heard he does good work for Bulldogs baseball as well. #SoundsOfTheBallpark #tradition

Not so fun fact: Margot has 1 walk all year.
— Pog Lankford (@poglankford) May 2, 2019

It’s weird to watch Manuel Margot descend into oblivion so quickly.
— William the Keg Washer (@LybargerBrewery) May 2, 2019

We are not worthy. https://t.co/E2kPdSbpEJ

Kinsler haters BEGGING for forgiveness
— Rich (@rich_roberts) May 2, 2019

what if, stay with me here, on top of the earlier home run, he hit's an rbi double.

Ian Kinsler, obvious Padres hitting savior.
— Craig Elsten (@619sports) May 2, 2019

Ian Kinsler was just trolling us all in April right?
— Kevin Hilgeman (@kevhilge) May 2, 2019

Ian Kinsler burnishing his credentials to one day be enshrined in the #Padres HOF.
— Bernie "Doc El Cajon" Wilson (@berniewilson) May 2, 2019

I WILL NEVER STOP RIPPING HIM
— Corey Stewart (@CoreyAStewart) May 2, 2019

In the end, the thing that really cured Ian Kinsler of his hitting woes was a game that started at 9am PT.

As someone that is regularly falling asleep on the couch at 10pm, I can relate.
— Gaslamp Ball (@gaslampball) May 2, 2019

I swear Manny Margot just waved at me and mouthed “hater!”
— William the Keg Washer (@LybargerBrewery) May 2, 2019

They're imperfect, and they work just great thanks.
— Woe, Doctor! (@woedoctor) May 2, 2019

Three XBH for Kinsler. Think we need to extend him a Manager of the Year campaign.

Guess Ian Kinsler just needed the calendar to change.
— Ryan Phillips (@RumorsandRants) May 2, 2019

This is the game the team needed before heading home to take on the Doyers. LFG Padres!!!
— chris, wrestling fan (@sportsbrain) May 2, 2019

This is the game I’ve been waiting all season for them to have.
— Shark Family Patriarch (Do do do dododo) (@LeftCoastBias) May 2, 2019

Padres taking care of some of their run differential issues in one fell swoop.
— Ben Higgins (@BenHigginsSD) May 2, 2019

*Sniff* That's my LF, CF, sometimes 1B, emergency 2B. https://t.co/PuVgrEcMp6
— Woe, Doctor! (@woedoctor) May 2, 2019

The truly crazy stat is that the Padres have only struck out 5 times today (15% K–rate). That's with zero walks, but still.
— Pog Lankford (@poglankford) May 2, 2019

Someone needs to lay that Petco commercial music from last year with a picture of Wil.
? look at this fabulous haircut!?
— Padres Haiku (@padreshaiku) May 2, 2019

The Braves shoot fireworks when they strike opposing hitters out. Even when they've given up 10 runs in two innings. Wil Myers, fresh off a two-run dinger, was in the dugout when he saw them. He pointed to the sky, laughed, and said, "Fireworks!"
— AJ Cassavell (@AJCassavell) May 2, 2019

I guess an 11-run lead is fine, but would have really loved to put the Braves out of triple slam range there.
— Jodes Paranal (@jodes0405) May 2, 2019

He threw 22 pitches last night though, so maybe not.
— AJ Cassavell (@AJCassavell) May 2, 2019

If it makes you feel better, a lot of it has been the Braves looking like doodoo.
— Pog Lankford (@poglankford) May 2, 2019

To be fair, the two called strikes were borderline.

Also, maybe swing the bat. Everybody is just trying to go home.
— Woe, Doctor! (@woedoctor) May 2, 2019

not sure i trust wisler with a 9 run lead tbh
