Padres Win With 2 In 10th; Me Hurt Deeply
For the love of Bruce Ruffin and Rob Dibble, we needed that one!
Aaaaarhrgrhgrhghhhhhh! If we lose home-field advantage to the Braves by one game, I'm going to look back on this one with all the disdain that I do that fateful day in September, 1993, when the Braves rallied from a 6-2 deficit to win with a two-run homer and a three-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning against Cincinnati; a game that could certainly be viewed as thegame that caused us to lose out by one measly win.
So now we're still 2.5 games back in the race for home-field advantage. That was a bigger loss than most suspect, I would guess. Yes, even with a 10-plus game lead, we're still fighting for something.
