Are Padres players the same as Raiders players? Seems like it.

Complete bullshit! The video of him throwing the ball to the Dodgers dugout is online. He soft tosses it and Dave and the players are behind the protective screen. Dave is a lying P.O.S. It's not uncommon for players to toss used balls that have hit the ground to the nearest dugout. I went to the same high school as Dave, and like Dave, but he can go fuck himself.

I for sure believed the story that he threw as hard as he could, just his character but the video didn't hold up to it. Tatis waving his junk at the crowd looked worse than this.

It really is not. Manny has a reputation from his days in Baltimore, but he has not been that player in San Diego. Tatis is getting stuff thrown at him and shit talked all night long from the fans in right field. I have no problem with him giving some back. You can't be incensed by anything the Padres players did and not mention Flaherty, because Flaherty shit talking Manny and hitting Tatis started most of this.

Your a Rancho Alumni? I'm class of 99'. I know Robert's from baseball as he comes back for out alumni games and so. He is different now days.

Getting two runs across is going to be a miracle. TATIS is a Dodger killer.

Second inning was ugly. Teo with the GS to keep us in it.

Padres have the best bullpen in the NL, maybe even in MLB.

That was the best chance with ohtani leading off.

And unfortunately legal.
So why doesn't everyone just run outside of the baseline and in the way of the throw? No brainer

VHS. Roberts went to VHS freshman year then transferred to RBV.

As long as the person with the ball is not attempting to tag them and they are not intentionally trying to disrupt the fielder from making a play on the ball.

The base path doesn’t exist until the player with the ball is attempting to make a play on the runner - at that point, the base path is a line from the runner to the bag.

You are referencing a thrown ball. He was running in that lane prior to Freeman throwing the ball. It is up to the Fielder to work around him at that point.

Even if he is beyond 3ft? If it was a dodgers player I would call it BS, intentional to disrupt the play.

It’s right there in the link I posted:

The first and most important thing to know about the base path is that there is no such thing as a base path (none exists) until a play is made on a runner. The base path is established when a fielder with the ball attempts to tag a runner. Then, and only then, is there a base path. And the base path is a straight line from the runner's position to the base to which he is advancing or retreating.

Ok, I guess a straight line isn't the fastest way from point A to point B

It might be the fastest but as Machado showed this evening, it’s not always the best.

And F Machado!

It's been a long time but I seem to remember a player being called out for this same thing, I was maybe 11 or 12 at the time.

If it's changed since then, then I think it's a safety issue, Freeman could have hit him in the spine (not that I would be upset if that happened to machado) but still a concern. Catchers aren't allowed to block the plate anymore because the runner didn't have pads on like the catcher did, you know, safety.

4waters . Machados base running didn’t cost us the game. It was a heads up play by Machado to get in the line of where freeman needed to throw the ball. Interference wasn’t called. I would have tried to get an interference call if I was Roberts. But still.

Rojas blew an easy out at 1st trying to make a double play. We could have gotten out of that inning being down by two. Give credit to the Padres for clutch hitting in the moment. It sucks to say that, but that is the facts.

Defense killed us that inning.

Giving up a 2 run bomb to Tatis was the nail in the coffin.

Buehler in the big picture pitched well tonight. His defense and us going silent on offense after the 6th inning is why we lost.

I’d hate to say it, but the Padres are a better team.

I’m hoping we can get to a game 5. But we better start scoring 7-8 runs a game if we want to beat the Padres this series .

We have one more chance. We need Ohtani to ball out…

We didn’t get it done. If we don’t give up the two run homer to Tatis we win. 5-4.

The Dodgers lack swagger. Reflection of leadership.

I don't think the HR happen if bueler isn't gassed, extending the innings with errors/bad plays is was lost this game. Having Freddie hobbled at 1st is one thing but Rojas at short stop requires a tons of range, Edman is a gold glove infielder, he should have started at short. Even with Frieddie, if hes able to pop up and make the throw. Team dug deep with that grand slam, it just wasnt enough to over come the terrible inning.

Agreed. Well said. Edman should start at short from here on out.

yup Bueler use to be lights out. He aint what he used to be after surgery... Hes a ground ball contact pitcher that has home runs hit off home more often..

he needs all the defensive help he can get and zero errors to minimize cotastrophy

also all there pitching is hurt... Glasnow is a big loss.. Gansolin , Justin May. Stone Kelly Kershaw, Graterol

Trinein is a stud and cold blooded and Phillips.. the rest of the guys they got now in the rotation are wishy washy


Say it over and over again you need to lights out starting pitchers that perform under pressure in your rotation to get you to the big show

it gaurantees you the short series and series victory... you win 2 games of series and if it come to it one of the 2 will pitch in the series to get you the win

Doyers dont have that now... with everyone hurt and Bueler was one of them but not now

OF A THROWN BALL. It wasn't thrown when he moved over. Umps didnt call it, LA didnt protest or question. Im fairly veratrin these guys know the game better than anyone on a boating website, including myself.
Lot of hate for Manny, Id say he is not the same player he was in LA. Lazy running or not, he did great last night in a clutch situation.
