First LIKE from a 70 yr old native San Diegan and Padres fan since their PCL days with players like Cesar Tovar, Lee May and Tony Perez. I moved to east Tennessee 6 yrs ago but still follow the Bolts, Aztecs and my Padres and will watch and root Tuesday and Wednesday, thanks for all you do to keep the Padres Fam informed and up to date. Blessings to all of my fellow Padres fans from a flood stricken Padres fan who believes this is the most TOTAL team in Padres history with an unmatched chemistry that gonna whup the Lil Blue Crybabies and go forward. GO PADRES!

I went and saw the PCL Padres at Westgate Park, I remember Jim Gentile.

@JeffreyJordan-gw9vt I remember him also Roberto Pena, Gus Gill and many others. Blessings and respect to a true Padres' fan.

​@@KeyTMCIn my heart I'm there always. Thanks and blessings to you Sir. Respect!

[@JeffreyJordan-gw9vt]

@@RichardFlah , I'll be 66 at the end of November so I was pretty young, but didn't Cookie Rojas play shortstop for them as well ? Thank you for your kind words and bless you as well, for being a lifelong Padres fan.

Love hearing this dude talk to the press. Command and confidence in the whole room.

[@thomasmachado7198]

It would be nice to hear him give Padre fans credit by referring to them as “our fans” instead of “these fans”.

[@davidfhth6842]

Our rookies are so composed, confident and mature beyond their years, it really is great to see. I know King not exactly a rookie but he is young enough to be

[@superintelligentapefromthe121]

Darvish had the performance of the playoffs so far for the Friars. I'll never forget it.

[@Reaps619]

“Hearing a pin drop while in an opposing stadium”. Never heard that before and I love it.

[@jasona9]

Michael King 👑 showed that he is a playoff caliber pitcher ⚾️ in game one of the Wild Card Round. Go Padres 🤎💛

[@bretfisher7286]

All I know is that Michael King's stuff is impossible. I'd hate to face him in the batter's box. When he's on, he's literally a wipeout pitcher. Go Padres!

[@f8widescat392]

Keyword when he’s on hopefully

[@MrLittle1904]

Classy San Diego 👏👌

[@SunZuu1]

He’s gonna cook tomorrow!

[@wikedwun]
