Over at the Fro: the PCL Padres and taking stock of history

Avenging Jack Murphy and RJ's Fro are teaming up (Avenging Jack Jones' Fro?) this season for an in depth look at the history of the Pacific Coast League's San Diego Padres. Perhaps, "in depth", is a bit of a reach on our part...  but hey, we'll give it a try.

So check out our introduction, which in a fit of logic, was designated the third installment of the PCL series. You see, first we discussed how FDR's New Deal helped bring the Padres to San Diego and then we hailed the first batter in Padres history.

Naturally, the introduction and statement of purpose would come third... because that's where you'll find the most awesome hitters and other things of awesomeness... third!
