Friarhood:
The TinCaps advance in the playoffs off the strength of 15 hits and 3 home runs. Yet again, the bullpen played a crucial role in tonight’s game as the starter, James Needy, didn’t make it through 3 innings. Besides a rocky outing for Dennis O’Grady, the TinCaps pen shut the Captains down, and only allowed 4 hits and struck out 4 over 4 innings. Hitting Prospect of the Day: Yeison Asencio/Kyle Gaedele

Security guard gets in way of ball girl's catch
A San Diego Padres ball girl was unable to catch a line drive during Tuesday night's game at Petco Park, but was probably distracted by the security guard who ran right in front of her while trying to get himself out of harm's way. It happened in the fourth inning as St. Louis Cardinals batter Pete Kozma hit a sharp line drive foul towards the left field stands. The ball...
Daily Friar 9.12.12
The past couple of games Chase Headley has been fairly quiet at the plate. He has been getting on base in some capacity, but he is leaving it up to the other guys on the team to do the damage and drive the runs in. That is exactly what Logan Forsythe has been doing for this team in the past couple games. He is getting men on base and driving them in to get the Padres the win any...
Headley's hot streak no mirage for Padres
(Eds: APNewsNow. Will be updated. With AP Photos.) By BERNIE WILSON AP Sports Writer At first, Chase Headley's power surge seemed like a mirage.
He was going to cool off, right?
As summer dragged on, Headley only got hotter.
The San Diego Padres' third baseman has 27 homers and an NL-leading 102 RBIs, extending his career bests in both categories and breathing some life...

D-backs lose rubber match, series to Padres

Maybin, Venable help Padres beat Cardinals
SAN DIEGO (AP) -- Cameron Maybin hit a two-run homer, Will Venable had three RBIs and the San Diego Padres handed the struggling St. Louis Cardinals an 11-3 loss on Monday night.
The loss dropped the Cardinals 9 1-2 games behind first-place Cincinnati in the NL Central. St. Louis, which has lost four of five, had its lead cut to one game over the idle Los Angeles Dodgers for the...
Is Chase Headley The Best 3rd Baseman in Baseball?
The answer, unfortunately, is no. However, there are only 2 guys I can think of that I would rather have on my team today at that premiere position. One is Miguel Cabrera, man whose atrocious defense is overshadowed by his unbeliveable hitting prowess (he’s got a decently realistic shot at the AL triple crown right now, really, take a look.). The other is David Wright, one of...

Daily Friar 9.10.12
We knew it was only a matter of time before Chase Headley was going to hit and surpass the 100 RBI mark for the season. Well yesterday he certainly did just that in “grand” fashion. The first article below will explain everything, but the Reader’s Digest version is that Chase hit a grand slam to push his home run total to 27 and his RBI total to 102. This now passes Ryan Braun...
Daily Friar 9.11.12
You know the offense is having a good night when two guys on the team are one hit away from the cycle. Funny thing is each was holding the hit that the other needed. Cameron Maybin had the home run, double and single; Logan Forsythe had the triple, double, single. On top of all their offense, Chris Denorfia added 4 hits to the mix of his own. All this came against a team who is making...
Daily Farm Round-Up: 9-12-12
In Game 1 of the Midwest League finals, The TinCaps fall in extras to the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers. Joe Ross made his return to Fort Wayne after going through rehab in Eugene, and performed admirably well as he struck out 5 and only allowed 2 hits over 5 innings. The TinCap bullpen that has been so rock solid in the playoffs finally faltered tonight as Luis De La Cruz walked 3 over...
