stoutfellowHere it is, mid-August, and the Padres are still in first place - in fact, still with the best record in the league.
This weekend was especially sweet. It's pretty much a two-team race now; the Giants have been surging while the EBE and Rockies have collapsed. Coming into this weekend's three-game set, the Giants were two and a half games out. One of their pitchers predicted a Giants sweep, putting them in first place, where (he said) they would stay for the rest of the season.
The Padres took two out of three; the prophetic pitcher lost one of those two.
I'm beginning to believe. It will probably end in tears, but I'm beginning to believe.
