During the 2012 season we’ll be looking at the top five players in Padre history at each position. The first rule: we will only consider the players’ time with the Padres, so Mike Piazza doesn’t count because he was only here for 1 year. I have set a completely arbitrary minimum of 200 games with the Padres. The other rule: players will be considered for their primary position...

A man in the front row of the reporters booth behind home plate at Petco Park caught a foul ball Tuesday night as the San Diego Padres hosted the Arizona Diamondbacks. Your browser does not support iframes. It happened in the top of the fourth inning as Diamondbacks third baseman Ryan Roberts hit a high foul ball behind home plate. The man, with an MLB.com laptop, stood up to...

San Diego had a chance in all three games to win, but totaled five runs in three games on only 17 hits, losing two of three from first place Arizona. The loss on Thursday night dropped them to 2-5 on the young season. The Padres will head up the 405 to Los Angeles to face the Dodgers in a three game series in Chavez Ravine. Below is a game by game account of San Diego’s final series...

These baseball grounds keepers are multi-talented.
Check out the dance routine this San Diego Padres minor league team’s ground crew performs mid-inning while taking care of the field. The self-proclaimed “Bad Apple Dancers” perform their routine for adoring fans at the class A Fort Wayne Tincaps games. While this dancing may be entertaining, I question how effectively these...

The Padres won for the second time this season yesteday. The pitching was stellar, but the offense (as usual) was not. As a team they are batting under .200. The only bright spot in the offense was Chris Denorfia's homerun in the bottom of the 8th to give the Padres the lead, and ultimately the win. Holding the Dbacks to 1 run is no easy feet, even in Petco, so kudos to the pitching...

Big day for Casey Kelly, but similar to Joe Saunders he left empty handed. Missions enjoyed a day of rest after a tough opening homestand. The Storm were joined by Mark Kotsay, who managed to lift the spirit but not help the team. Finally Fort Wayne ran into top draft pick Archie Bradley in a pitcher’s duel in South Bend.

I was in LA last night. Not for the game, but for a concert. I was however following the game on my phone and I was impressed that I saw a number higher than 2 next to the Padres. I was then impressed that we were able to tie the game up when it came to the 9th inning. Then all hell broke loose. It is sad how the Dodgers won that game. They didn't even have to put up a fight...

Dodgers pitcher Aaron Harang has struck out nine straight batters, setting a franchise record for one game.
Harang gave up a leadoff single to Cameron Maybin before striking out the next nine San Diego Padres batters Friday night, breaking Johnny Podres' club record of eight in a row set against the Philadelphia Phillies on July 2, 1962. Harang's streak ended when Will Venable...

When you think of dominant pitchers who have the ability to strike out nine batters in a row, I bet one of the last names that would pop up into your mind is Aaron Harang. Yet last night, as the Dodgers took on the Padres, Harang struck out nine Padres in a row, and a total of 12 over 6 1/3 innings in Los Angeles's 9-8 win. Of course, Harang didn't get credit for a win...

Harang tied his career high with 13 strikeouts in 6 1-3 innings and the Dodgers won their fourth in a row. They lead the majors with a 7-1 record, their best start...
