A big night for the Padres’ “West Virginia Connection” as 3B Jedd Gyorko and 2B Vince Belnome combine for seven hits while CF Daniel Robertson is quietly making a push for recognition as he pushes his batting average to .325 with three doubles. In Lake Elsinore CF Rico Noel has now stolen 63 bases on the year and Fort Wayne’s Travis Jankowski appears to have broken out of his slump.

In what appeared to be another win for the then NL West leading Dodgers, pinch runner Everth Cabrera stole home as closer Kenley Jansen turned his back to the plate.
The scene that unfolded after Jansen realized his error was quite chaotic, as the hard-throwing closer threw the ball over catcher AJ Ellis’ head and to the backstop. The home plate umpire initially called Cabrera...

The San Diego Padres had Everth Cabrera pinch run in the 9th inning and with two outs he caught the Dodgers napping. Down to their last strike, Cabrera took off for home, then in a strange sequence of events was ruled out. Within seconds, catcher A.J. Ellis was seen chasing down the...

Cabrera was standing off third in the ninth inning Saturday night with the Padres down by a run and down to their final strike. When Dodgers reliever Kenley Jansen turned his back to the plate to clean the dirt...

That was probably the wildest finish to a game I have ever seen. This is coming from a guy that has seen some pretty crazy stuff happen in Padres baseball. Everything had to go perfectly in order for Everth Cabrera to steal home like he did, but to have Will Venable score too was just perfect. With two outs and two strikes in the top of the 9th it was definitely a risky move. If...

Closer Kenley Jansen had just thrown a strike to Alexi Amarista to make it 2-2 with runners on second...

With the Padres in search of much-needed thump in the middle of their projected lineup this past winter, GM Josh Byrnes orchestrated a deal to acquire local boy Carlos Quentin from the Chicago White Sox in exchange for two fringe prospects. Though Quentin missed much of the season’s first two months with a knee injury he has been exactly what the Friars hoped for with the bat....

The Padres are starting their second half campaign on the right foot. We know that the playoffs are essentially out of the question for this club. That is unless they go on a Herculean, Colorado Rockies run and make it in on the last day of the season. So our role now is to play spoliers to the teams that we have grown to hate. The Dodgers were the first to feel this wrath as the...
