Please don’t keep trying to make the three man booth- particularly with Sweeney – a thing. Now calling it the trinity? Gross.

fwiw, Font isn't great, so don't @ me if Kinsler gets a couple hits today.

Stop me if you heard this before. A ball kinsler should get to turns into a double.
— Nate Z (@SimplyMe10Z1) May 8, 2019

What is Kinsler even trying to accomplish by attmpting to field the ball like that. He had enough time to square up and stay in front of that one….
— Kevin Hilgeman (@kevhilge) May 8, 2019

I would watch the Padres during halftime, but that sounds like a terrible idea from how some of y'all are telling it.

Manny Machado has to be so frustrated right now. He's crushing the ball and keeps getting robbed.
— Ryan Phillips (@RumorsandRants) May 8, 2019

I’m in 119 row 33 if anyone wants to come boo Kinsler with us

Hos could not be any more Hos right now

Well Sweeney seems to know so much about being a hitting coach. Can he please go be one somewhere?

Yeah, Don, put that mic riiiigghhtttt there pic.twitter.com/3jBIZhkjvw

Matt Strahm strikes out Peter Alonso to end the inning. That’s the last time you step to Chris Paddack, PAL!!! #TweetLikeAMetsFan #Padres
— Eric (No Longer Miserable) (@MiserableSDFan) May 8, 2019

The Padres have been fun but they have so much more room to grow for example cutting Kinsler and Sweeney

Once again, Matt Strahm don't need no stinkin' universal DH.#padres

Seriously, is @heyscan okay? Blink twice if you can read this, Scan.

The Mets broadcast booth just compared Jeff McNeil to Tony Gwynn. On the next pitch, McNeil struck out looking at a fastball. [Insert Tony Gwynn fun fact here.]
— Sac Bunt Dustin (@sacbuntdustin) May 8, 2019

Strahm with a bad bunt that almost worked.
— Sac Bunt Dustin (@sacbuntdustin) May 8, 2019

Strahm has to get a bunt done otherwise Margot is going to do something stupid.
Oh, thanks, Manny.
— William the Keg Washer (@LybargerBrewery) May 8, 2019

Margot shouldn't be this bad at baserunning. But he is.
— Woe, Doctor! (@woedoctor) May 8, 2019

Manny Margot is officially part of The Rivalry. He robbed Pete Alonso of a dinger in the 6th.
— AJ Cassavell (@AJCassavell) May 8, 2019

Paddack 1
Alonso 1
Margot 1

I realize this scoring system has flaws.
— Ben Higgins (@BenHigginsSD) May 8, 2019

Looked up for a second and I thought Strahm was still pitching.

That's as good as you can play that fly ball. Margot with a great play on it, but the collision with the wall knocked it out. Bad luck.
— Ryan Phillips (@RumorsandRants) May 8, 2019

Strahm deserved better
— Kevin Thompson (@ParkAtThePark) May 8, 2019

Tomas Nido v. Gerardo Reyes:

1. Swinging strike, 97
2. Swinging strike, 98
3. Swinging strike, 99
— AJ Cassavell (@AJCassavell) May 8, 2019

Dude. Gerardo Reyes just came in for six pitches and got six swinging strikes.
— AJ Cassavell (@AJCassavell) May 8, 2019

He broke Statcast.

HOW DARE THOSE WHO DWELL IN METROPOLITAN AREAS CHALLENGE HUNTER RENFROE WITH A SPEED BALL! THE DESTROYER OF WORLDS WILL ANNIHILATE ALL SUCH CHALLENGES WITH HIS STICK OF POWER!
— Ryan Phillips (@RumorsandRants) May 8, 2019

Renfroe with a blast / @Padres are up three to two / can the bullpen hold?
— Padres Haiku (@padreshaiku) May 8, 2019

Reyes swings like he pitches.
— Sac Bunt Dustin (@sacbuntdustin) May 8, 2019

Reyes is gonna hit for himself here, and I have no opinions to offer on this strategy, other than to say that it's interesting.
— AJ Cassavell (@AJCassavell) May 8, 2019

Did a reliever just bat with a runner on 2nd in a one run game?
— Corey Stewart (@CoreyAStewart) May 8, 2019

well then andy.. i mean.. i guess if the ONLY alternative was maton pitching? lol

Dude, Reyes, Dude.
— Kevin Thompson (@ParkAtThePark) May 8, 2019

Why wasn’t Reyes up this whole time?
— Pog Lankford (@poglankford) May 8, 2019

The head-shaking in the press box on the seeming ease of that Machado play (which was far from easy) is starting to become a Petco Park cliche. #Padres
— Bryce Miller (@Bryce_A_Miller) May 8, 2019

Oh hey, look, Kinsler with an 0-4.
— William the Keg Washer (@LybargerBrewery) May 8, 2019

Hedges just stole that strikeout for Yates on back to back pitches.
— Ryan Phillips (@RumorsandRants) May 8, 2019

If you heard someone scream "DFA" from the 300 level, that was me. #Kinsler
— Joe Lanek (@TheThinGwynn) May 8, 2019

That doesn't sound right.
— Pog Lankford (@poglankford) May 8, 2019

Padres beat the Mets / though Yates kept it interesting/ still a wins a win /// #FriarFaithful
