Wait. We’re “not supposed to be in this series on paper.” What paper are you reading, Smoltz?

“The Padres are just gonna have to find a way to pick and scratch their way against the best pitchers in the game.” FFS. Do your research. At least Sut called Klesko.

The Padres are named after a 2,000 year old religious institution but the Dodgers are named after getting out of the way of stuff and that sort of history can’t be beat.

Joe Kelly has walked Fernando Tatis Jr. and Manny Machado.

The bases are loaded.

Eric Hosmer is at the plate.

Joe Kelly remains in the game.

The Padres' family section has not stopped cheering all inning.

I really wish fans could see this in person. It would be electric.
