The lovable man that was Press Gate Bruce, who welcomed fans and media for years at games, once had a small part in the movie “Angels in the Outfield.”

A fact. Use it as you wish.

Step inside the Yu Darvish museum, where curiosities and dedication are on display You can try on a replica jersey from his major-league teams. You are not, however, allowed to climb into his customized hyperbaric chamber.

I can't watch Yu Darvish pitch without being reminded of my visit to Kobe, which has more odd museums than any place on earth -- including the Yu Darvish Museum. www.nytimes.com/athletic/366...

Yu Darvish hasn't thrown this many fastballs in a game (as a percentage thrown) since 2018 and the Giants can't do anything with them

Hope to see ya in two weeks in the press box to compare notes !

The previous record for most hits given up by a pitcher in a game in which he recorded his 3,500th career K was 10, by Tom Seaver. Hi Andy 👋

An emergency podcast on this post alone would be worthy of a listen

Tonight marked the first time the Padres have ever scored a walk-off victory vs. the Red Sox #SSS

Another gem of a story, per usual

That graphic wasn’t done animating in!

Another May-like satellite image, this one on Aug. 9. The return of a beefed up marine layer should help drop high temperatures in the San Diego County valleys to the high 80s or low 90s, about normal for August. Similar highs expected on Sunday & Monday. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

Contains a wild note about the Padres' walk-off win July 28 vs. the Mets

Mason Miller has made 3 appearances with the Padres and already has their five fastest pitches under tracking (2008) and 10 of their top 12

San Diego hit 78 today. It's first time it's been hotter than 75 since July 15, when it was 81. It was much hotter inland. Some highs today: Valley Center, 100; Ramona, 99; Escondido, San Pasqual Valley, Alpine, 98; Santee, 97; Poway, El Cajon, 95. Ocotillo Wells reached 117. #sandiegoweather #CAwx

Just scrolled to it and it was a very shallow pop up. No chance to advance.

I think I read that you were there

Color me skeptical

The Padres were the third team in the last 10 years to win a game in which they surrendered a grand slam, and later, a game-tying homer in the 9th (SEA, 5/11/16 & PIT 3/31/24). The Mariners and Padres won in walk-off fashion.

The Padres have 9 walk-off wins at Petco Park against the Mets, tied for their most vs. any non-NL West opponent (CIN, MTL/WSH).
