I'm getting ready to head down to Petco Park again this year for the July 3-5 series of the LA Dodgers vs. the SD Padres, and I have the good fortune to seeing Manny Ramirez make his return to the Dodger blue that weekend. Our seats are fantastic and we're staying right across from the park! You can't ask for more, except for the Dodgers to sweep the series.

Go Blue!

Nice...glad they won for you! There is nothing worse than watching your team lose on the road.

So here we are, up 5 runs in the 9th inning, and you figure this game is in the bag. Billingsley gives up a homer, and yes, he's done for the day. A solid outing, 8 1/3 innings, 2 runs, 4 hits, a homer and a double for the young ace. You'd think that Broxton is going to come in and shut the door with a 4 run lead. To our shock, watching the Padres score 5 runs in the 9th was crazy. We were sitting in the second row behind the Padres dugout so we could hear all the celebration from within the dugout, as well as all the fans around us.

Manny pinch hit in the 10th inning, I believe and he popped out to Tony Gwynn Jr. Jr. made this great catch and came back and threw the ball into the crowd. The ball hit off my right thumb, I came so close to catching that ball!

Luckily, Loney smacked one out in the 13th inning, so all ends well in Dodgertown South to secure our victory and take 2 of three in SD.

What a game, one to remember for sure.
