I'm not ready to be done with baseball. The boys aren't ready to be done with baseball. The Padres need to win to stay alive and force a winner-take-all game 5. Let's go Padres.
Win today. Keep the faith. Keep playing baseball. Let's go Pads.
Padres took a tragic, only happens to the Padres, kinda loss in Game 1 of the NLDS. Gotta turn it around and not let that be a defining moment. Let it be a funny thing we look back at after a deep run. Go win today and bring it home to Petco for some magic. LFGSD.
I want you all to be luckier than me, so here's a Lingling-O for you! It's an ancient symbol that's relevant to many places in South East Asia, which includes the Philippines!! It still holds relevance with the Ifugao and the Igorot people today. It's believed to bring luck and protection. ( •𖥦•)
This sucks for many reasons. But I think it's worth emphasizing how selfish and duplicitous it is to go work with a public-facing, community-focused media org like MinnMax without disclosing this part of your past to them. (MinnMax confirmed to me they were not told.) Please support them if you can
I want to say it cannot be said enough how important it is for other men to say things about this shit. In the moment, or ASAP My first ever game dev event I was sexually harassed (assaulted?) by a Sony exec while all of my coworkers saw and said nothing Please say something, for people that can't
I've been trying to think of what to say and I can't, so in the meantime I'll just make sure this gets shared
THE SAN DIEGO PADRES ARE HEADED TO THE NLDS TO FACE OFF AGAINST THE MILWAUKEE BREWERS! THIS TEAM IS TOGETHER.
"HOLY SHEETS, HOLY SHEETS" Padres fans were chanting ... Gavin Sheets delivered.
Let's fucking go, San Diego. Let's hope I'm celebrating in a few hours.
Fernando Tatis Jr.: 2-for-3, HR, SB, 3 R Manny Machado: 2B, HR, 2 RBI Michael King: 7 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 8 Ks The @Padres dominate Game 1! (MLB x @AbbVie)
Fernando Tatis Jr. never stopped running 🤯
FERNANDO TATIS JR. ARE YOU SERIOUS?!
I really love the plié Michael King does whenever he's pitching out of the stretch.
Two batters later, Manny Machado leaves the yard. Petco Park's noise level is insane.
WOW. Fernando Tatis Jr. homers on the first pitch he sees.

But what if I relished still having that honor. >:c
The 2005 Padres can pop bottles with that Astros loss Astros & Rangers are both 79-81, ensuring that the 2026 AL West champion will be worse than that 82-80 Padres team, giving us a new Worst Division Champion in MLB History
THE SAN DIEGO PADRES ARE HEADING TO THE PLAYOFFS FOR THE THIRD YEAR IN A ROW. A FRANCHISE FIRST. I feel so good about this team. Cannot wait to see what we can do. Let's finish business at home and guarantee home games in the postseason. <3 LET'S FUCKING GO SAN DIEGO.
