Not In My House

Congratulations to the Padres on an exciting game, denying the Dodgers' celebration at PetCo. LA Times sports writers gave no credit to the Padres for the win, but we know--we saw--amazing pitching, hitting, and most of all, great defense. Labeled the likes of "lowly Padres" and "next-to-last-place team," opponents don't seem to quite realize how well the Padres have played in August and September. Cabrera may make an error, but he more than makes up for it with dazzling plays. In fact, sometimes I think he makes an error just so he can initiate the double play for the next batter. And, what's with the wrestling move, (ex-Padre) Loretta?
