Padres Expos scorecard Gwynn 3,000 hits

My favorite piece! Covering the game in Montreal the day Tony Gwynn got his 3,000th career hit. The Expos press box provided lineup cards as is typical most places back then. I held onto my sloppy scorecard and had Tony sign it (upper right corner, red ink in photo) on the team charter afterwards

Says it all . . .

With the win tonight for the @Padres, Adrian Morejon earns his 11th win which ties him with Rollie Fingers (1980) and Butch Metzger (1976) for most wins by a Padres reliever in a single season.

For @Padres Ramon Laureano he now has 2 career grand slams. For Luis Castillo, he has only allowed 2 grand slams in his career now. The first: June 3, 2018 vs the Padres (Hunter Renfroe)

@Padres take the series and add to their MLB-leading total with their 12th shutout of the season in today's 1-0 win. Their single season record for shutouts is 20, done twice (2007 & 2010). It's the 3rd time SD has won by a 1-0 score this season. Most 1-0 wins in a season is 6 done in 1985 and 2010.

The @Padres shutout the @Brewers tonight for their MLB-leading 11th shutout this season. For SD, it's the most shutouts in the first 62 games of a season in team history.

Prior to tonight the last time the @Padres won a game with a walkoff wild pitch was June 11, 2022 vs the Rockies (Carlos Estevez wild pitch scoring Manny Machado in 3-2 win in 10)

That 2-Run HR by @Padres Gavin Sheets ended a stretch of 46 consecutive innings without scoring multiple runs in an inning and a 27-inning scoreless innings streak as well.

So I got your answer. 3 is the most walkoff homers allowed by one pitcher to one opponent in MLB history - there are 20 tied at 3. Jansen is the only pitcher to do it vs the Padres

I will take a look into this question but it may take a bit since I'm about to cover tonight's game. I do know Kenley Jansen has surrendered 3 to the Padres

@Padres ahead 5-0 in the top of the 4th. They have now held the Rockies scoreless for 32 consecutive innings, the longest streak vs any opponent in team history.

In case you missed it . . .

A @Padres player who likely will have the force with them today is Manny Machado who is hitting .375 (15 For 40) with a 1.269 OPS, 5 HR and 12 RBI in 10 career games on this date.

The @Cubs Pete Crow-Armstrong had 2 HR and a triple in last night's game vs the Dodgers. For you @Padres historians that combination of hits has only happened twice - May 21, 2001 (Ryan Klesko at HOU) and July 5, 1998 (Greg Vaughn vs COL)

Disappointing news as Merrill has become such a vital part of the team’s early success . . .

@Padres have recalled OF Oscar Gonzalez from Triple-A El Paso and placed OF Jackson Merrill on the 10-day IL (retro: April 7) with a right hamstring strain.

The TV compound was located on the other side of the street from the outer walls of the stadium and unfortunately, I had a lot of technical issues getting set up for the start of the series so I never actually went in the ballpark. I hoped to correct that tonight.

So naturally I mistyped “Sutter” 🤣

A milestone moment for me. . . Sitter Health Park here in Sacramento will mark the 50th ballpark that I have either worked or attended a MLB game at in my lifetime.

The @Padres lost today despite allowing only 3 hits

Just 2 losses last season when allowing 3 or fewer hits
(went 10-2 in 12 games)
Losses were
4/17/24 at MIL (1-0 L)
5/21/24 at CIN (2-0 L)

For the 5th time in @Padres history they have started a season with at least 3 straight wins. They also started 3-0 in 2021, 1980, 1969 and had a club record 4-0 start in 1984.

Note: @Padres FernandoTatis Jr. extends his own Padres record for leadoff HR (Venable 2nd with 10)

The last time the @Padres went 2-0 to start a season: 2021

Ahhhhhh…first pitch swinging and @Padres Manny Machado hits a 2-run HR! Baseball is back thankfully!
