You Are Now Entering The Pedrosphere



I suppose it was meant to be a nice tribute to honour the military serving in the San Diego area but really, when the Padres came out for a game last night dressed in camouflage baseball uniforms, you had to wonder how humiliated they must have been looking so ridiculous and so un-baseball like. Enough to lose the game, 8-1.

Back to back homers by Nady and Ramon Castro in addition to yet another by Carlos Delgado, his third consecutive game homering which now puts him one shy of the Mets record for April, were more than sufficient to help give Pedro and easy and dominating victory.

Pedro struck out 11 and allowed only 4 base runners over seven innings.


I know Mike Piazza's supposed to married to a really fit bird and all but you can't deny the comical dandism of this man, hands on hips as he is, styled in a hideous camouflage baseball kit.

Piazza scored the Padres lone run with a moon shot off Pedro in the second inning which did little to slow Pedro or the Mets.

The Mets have a chance tomorrow for a rare three of four series victory on the road however Victor Zambrano is pitching for the Mets and thus, we'll have to be happy with a split.
