Sadly, PETCO was filled to the gills with people wearing overtly offensive head-wear. The day was made worse when the Padres lost to the Giants by a final score of 8-4.
The Friars actually brought the tying run to the plate in the 9th, anticlimactically, in the form of back-up catcher Rob Johnson. If only Nick Hundley hadn't been lifted when the game was a laugher.
We all know the game wasn't as close as the score indicated. Tim Lincecum was on the bump.
It's difficult to watch greatness in action at the expense of the team you're cheering for but that's what we witnessed yesterday. Lincecum was dialed in. The Padres offense is nothing to write home about but watching The Freak's strikeout video footage it was pretty evident that he would not be denied on a dreary Wednesday afternoon. Of course Nick Hundley disagrees with my assessment.
So yeah! I saw a great pitcher pitch a great game. I can cross
