After consecutive games at 98, it’s a cool 97 at first pitch in Denver. Hot coffee weather. (Always hot coffee weather.) ☕️

If I were the Padres I would simply remember we are in Colorado and can score in the teens.
— William, washing kegs again (@LybargerBrewery) June 16, 2021

I can’t remember ever watching a pitcher as uncomfortable on the mound as Snell has been for most of this season.

Tatis just crushes a homer 477 feet. His 21st HR and longest of his career. #Padres

HOSMER WOULD NEVER

So that is what a stretch looks like.
— William, washing kegs again (@LybargerBrewery) June 16, 2021

Tatis has made some really bad throws this year that aren’t Hosmer’s fault but there’s 0 chance Hosmer makes that play right there

why didn't profar just half heartedly kneel while holding his glove as close to 1B as possible like our gold glove 1B?

Tatis is SO good. HE'S SO GOOD.

Tatis is unreal

Puts the team down 3-0, team ties it 3-3.
Puts the team down 4-3, team goes ahead 5-4.
First batter HR ties it 5-5.

Blake Snell is displaying Brett Tomko levels of unclutch.

All I'm asking is to burn Coors Field to the ground.
— Woe, Doctor! (@woedoctor) June 16, 2021

When the relief pitcher on the mound is wearing number 67 and he’s in the game in the 4th inning…things probably aren’t going well #Padres
— Jim Russell (@JimRussellSD) June 16, 2021

At least Blake’s brother isn’t on here trying to defend him

No Postgame Thread MVP for this game because, quite frankly, there was nothing worth highlighting.
