No doubt. Didn't think that guy was capable of getting an infield single

Would you rather have batter by batter updates or just an inning update?

Fat Elvis cranks a double to the wall in LF, Tejada tries to score from 1st. OUT at the plate. Berkman takes 3rd on the relay.

I was taught to never look a gift-horse in the mouth. Dealers choice.

Very high chop to third. Carlos was hauling ass down the line and juuuust beat the throw. It was indeed a legitimate infield single.
-

Yes, an inside slide would have beat the tag. Ideally Carlos would have been wildly waving him over.
-
Very high chop to third. Carlos was U-hauling his ass down the line and juuuust beat the throw. It was indeed a legitimate infield single.
-
Remember that disco song about the Chargers?
It was like "San Diego...Super Chargers!"
That was pretty dope.

Yeah, just put this on, open up a bottle of red wine, and you'll be SOLID with your lady friend. Take it from me, friend (spark shoots from my grin and bell rings).

When I was young and my dad would bring me up to the office, he would either send me to the supply closet (where I would steal 10,000 dollars worth of office supplies) or send me to bother the other lawyers.
And now I work here, and the lawyers bother me regularly. Stupid karma.

Blanks Ks swinging.
Gonzalez bounces out 4-3

Don't let him get started with Post-It notes. That's a gateway paper. From there it's on to letter, legal, god knows what else.

I will steal all his moves.

Pretty good scenery today - as you might expect in San Diego.

Padres at 1st and 2nd. 1 out
Cabrera shoots one down the 3B line, Blum crosses to his right, snags it, crosses to tag the bag and then launches a missle to Berkman for the DP.

Only 2 HRs for Blum all year? That doesn't sound right.

Bourn at 1st for Tejada.
Miggy takes one ball, then the Padre outfielders all move to the infield as a huge cloud of insects invade the field. Maybe bees?
-
WTF?
-
Game is delayed because of a bee infestation in left field. I'm not kidding.
-

Game called on the account of... Bees....?
Africanized honeybees are a problem in that part of the country. They'd do well to be cautious if it is a swarm looking for a new nest location.
-
JD is making SNL Killer Bee jokes and FSH is showing the bee swarm in slow motion.
-
Before the bees were on the field, the ushers were starting to move some of the fans out of the way of the bees.
The umpires are now pulling the players off the field. Some of the fans are just sitting there in the midst of the bees wondering why the players are leaving the field.
-
There is a ballboy's chair with a Padres jacket and the bees are just swarming it. The queen must have decided she likes that jacket.
-
Oh awesome! The bees are swarming on a Padres jacket that's hung on the back of the ballboy's chair.
-
JD: This is both gross and really cool at the same time.
-
I can't wait to see this. Some poor groundskeeper is going to get abused by these bees. I hope they pick the guy without the allergy.
-
Despite the lopsided score there's a real buzz at the ballpark.

Ok, it is not a ballboy's jacket. She is definitely a ballgirl.

JD described it earlier as having the atmosphere of a Spring Training "B" game.
His proposed newspaper headlines were great:
"Padres have no sting"
"Padres Bee-leaguered by the Astros"
"Padres Bee-deviled"
"Honey of a trip for the Astros"
"Astros turned into Bee-lievers"
Pretty funny stuff...
-
Boo-bees!
I'll go kill myself now.
Wow. That is so awesome. You owe me half a shiner.
-
Boo-bees!
I'll go kill myself now.
Thats just bad... At the same time I'm ashamed I didn't come up with it myself...
-
Tom Garfinkel (President and COO of the Padres) is visiting JD and Bill Brown in the booth and says there are several thousand bees under the jacket and that there was a contigency plan for this. They have a beekeeper on speed dial. He said he was surprised that such a plan was in place for bees.

I lived in San Diego County for a year. It's surprising how many flora and fauna there are in that place that can kill or maim you. The locals just take it in stride.

Yeah, you gotta watch out for those killer flora. It's like a Little Shop of Horrors out there.
-
Beekeeper on the field.
-
Oh the humanity.
-
Boo-bees!

Hahaha, awesome.
Beekeeper on the scene. Kevin and Art Howe are kind of stunned at the brutality as the guy annihilates the bees.
-
Hope you didn't need that jacket.
-
Hope you didn't need that jacket.
Please tell me they detonated the jacket.
-
PETA gave the President a hard time for swatting a fly. They're having a collective conniption fit right now.

"Listen to this music in the ballpark. We need a hero" as the beekeeper removes his mask and leaves the field.

Bourn at 1st for Tejada.
Miggy takes one ball, then the Padre outfielders all move to the infield as a huge cloud of insects invade the field. Maybe bees?
Game resumes.
Miggy takes ball 2
-
Maybe the Astros will finally make Bees-ball Tonight? No?
Hey, all the good shit was taken.
-
Please tell me they detonated the jacket.
Haha, nope, the beekeeper unleashed a spray of bee-killer all over the jacket and the bees dropped off. Then he put the jacket on the ground, scooped up all the dead bees, and piled them onto the jacket.
-
"Holding out for a hero" on the PA as the beekeeper leaves the field.
Good story over a beer: Yeah, I came into Petco in the top of the 9th to a standing ovation...

Bourn at 1st with 2 outs.
Tejada takes a walk.

Berkman hit it over into the bee corner. Smart.
-

Gotta hand it to those Rice guys.

No kidding. Am a bit surprised that they decided to nuke 'em rather than trap 'em though...
-
Yeah, you gotta watch out for those killer flora. It's like a Little Shop of Horrors out there.
Seriously - no joke. They plant oleander all over the place and it's ridiculously toxic. We practically had to napalm our backyard when we got here to make it safe for animals.

I have oleanders all over my yard in Houston. They're everywhere. They're not a problem at all.
-

They should apply the same tactics to people who run on the field uninvited, too.
-
Don't use oleander sticks at your next weenie roast. That's some free advice from good old chuck.
Also, have you ever been jabbed by one of those huge aloe plants? That's some dangerous shit, don't kid yourself.

I told someone at work that I have an oleander hedge, and they freaked and said "don't you know those are poisonous?", like they were saving my life. I said sure, but I'm only gonna look at them, not put them in a salad.
On a side note, they have some beautiful huge oleanders all around MMPUS.

Fig tree? Forget it. You ever climb one'a them? Tear you ass up is what it'll do.

Have you ever been stuck by one of those 2" cactus barbs, right through your hiking boot? I have. It hurts.
And there is the fauna too: Mountain Lions, coyotes, tarantulas, brown recluse, black widows, scorpions, rattle snakes, etc... And, even more in the ocean. None of it is terrifying or anything like that, it's just very different than the east coast outdoor experience. If I'm gonna die here, it will be because I failed to roll my kayak properly, not because something jumped out of a tree and ate me.

I hate mother fucking bee delays.

Alfonso to PH for Joe Thatcher.
Runners advance on a wild pitch.

Cooper is gonna be PISSED.

Well you've never had a problem, so there must be no risk. One of my dogs eats EVERYTHING (dirt, grass, ear plugs, pantyhose, botttlecaps, wine corks, etc.) - he's practically part goat. And I've actually sat in the vet with people whose dog was dying and they couldn't do anything because he chewed half a leaf. There's enough risk there for me to tear out some bushes.

My dogs chew on everything too...except the oleanders. I suppose there is a risk, but there's a risk of them chewing on the electrical cords in the house too, I don't live without electricity. My point was that oleanders are common ornamental plants throughout the coastal south, never thought of them as killer flora.

My husky once sniffed out my husband's housemate's stash and ate a 1/4 ounce of weed. She could easily discover if he's been hanging out with Soto.
