San Diego Padres

They have the audited statements.

They know very well what the Marlins were doing every year with their payroll, and the Pirates and the Yankees and the Padres.

They know very well how irresponsible the Padres have been.

They know very well you can't run a business the way they've run a business.

So I urge you, as we continue on into this, when you hear about blackouts, when you hear about franchise valuations, when you hear about percentages of revenue, just take a breath and make sure that you're understanding whether you're being fed apple juice, orange juice, or none of the above.

Not gonna happen.

Did you see last night about Sandy Alcantara with the Marlins? I just want to get this out there.

It's like one of the top stories that he got the save in Arizona crushing really with how hot the Padres are, the Diamondbacks postseason hopes, how exciting it is that Sandy was a reliever for the first time since 2017 with the Cardinals before he got traded to the Marlins.

Right, right.

But I think against the Padres last year, they went toe to toe with one of the best bullpens.

I don't think that's going to happen-

Fair

That, that could be a, a really intriguing series there at Kauffman Stadium if Cleveland needs to win that series to get into the postseason.

National League, I know it's a game that you've got circled today, but I want to ask you big picture about the Padres.

Winners of nine of their last 10.

They're absolutely on fire right now.

Yes.

They're getting closer and closer to the Phillies potentially to, to flip spots with them in a wild card scenario.

Feel like the Snakes have kind of drifted off here, what, three in- games, three and a half games back of the Padres to get that final wild card spot.

It feels like we're locked in, Jensen, at least the teams that we believe are gonna be in the postseason.

10 and 4, 10 and 4, 10 and 4, 10 and 5.

Hope you like dead heats.

Brewers, Yankees, Rays, Padres, Dodgers.

Tigers, Guardians, one win back.

That could be a really intriguing series there at Kauffman Stadium if Cleveland needs to win that series to get into the postseason.

National League, I know it's a game that you guys circled today, but I want to ask you a big picture about the Padres.

Winners of nine of their last ten.

They're absolutely on fire right now.

They're getting closer and closer to the Phillies, potentially, to flip spots with them in a wildcard scenario.

Barring something unforeseen and a total collapse for San Diego.

Everything broke their way, including a ball getting stuck in the wall.

Padres have a 20-year-old catcher.

Gonzalez went deep.

Youngest catcher with a multi-homer game.

Tomorrow night's game will wind up playing between the East and the West, and it'll be...

Back against the West on Thursday night is the Dodgers' journey to San Diego to open a four-game series against the Padres.

The Padres tonight are playing host to Philadelphia.

Okay, we're all set.

Time to play ball.

Dodgers beat the Bills 2-1 in 10.

Padres beat Conley.

Second game, 3-1 Dodgers and a five.

Koufax and Mahaffey.
