I'm relieved it's not just me! Thought I was going crazy for a moment. Just got a notification that the Astros beat the Padres in 21 innings. It happened in September 1971, and Clay Kirby struck out 15 batters over 15 innings pitched in the loss.
I’m getting mlb Gameday updates randomly of padres games that happened in 1971! This is tripping me out!

"As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly." Greatest sitcom writing ever!
What’s your all-time favorite sitcom episode? I’ll start with:
“The turkeys are hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement!"

It's so nice to be back home @PetcoPark for some @Padres baseball. Nothing like the musical stylings of @Bobbycressey and the dulcet tones of @AlexMiniakPA #OpeningDay #BringTheGold
We've waited all winter to hear it! #letsgobluejays

This is sad news. Another one of the voices of my childhood is gone.
Sad news for longtime Padres fans. Original Padres PA announcer John DeMott passed away this past weekend in Florida. I've known Demo since Ray Kroc took the mike from him on Opening Day 1974.
You might remember him for announcing ... "Number11Enzo ... Hernandez." #Padres

That's one reason he's one of the greatest hitters. Ever.
Best career batting average with two strikes (1988-2022):
Tony Gwynn, .302 😮
Wade Boggs, .262
Luis Polonia, .261
Juan Pierre, .260
Todd Helton, .258
Ichiro Suzuki, .253
Hitting .302 with two strikes against MLB pitchers over an entire career is just absolutely insane.
