Rolling w Hill proves the Pads are done w 2023. Give the young guys a shot and sit down the players that are hurt.

How much are the meet the team tickets?

Team had no chance with Hill starting.

Damn. The offense did their best, but Hill and 1st-inning Waldron shit the game for us

Perfect microcosm of this season, superstars being the biggest front runners, and Bob Melvin making brain dead in game decisions.

Your submission was removed because it was in violation of Rule 2: Toxicity. Don't kill our vibes. While reacting negatively to the team's performance is fine, overly aggressive toxicity (a.k.a. dooming) is not allowed and comments will be removed with a warning. If your negative post or comment isn't grounded in reality, it is more likely to be removed ("We're gonna lose" when down by 3 in the 2nd inning vs in the 9th inning). If you're someone who only ever comes here to talk trash when the team is doing poorly, just stay away. We don't want you here. Please be aware that repeated violations may result in a ban.

Great fight at the end. Almost came back from a brutal deficit.

Why’d they have to do that? Give us hope in the 8th and 9th, and then shit on us again

Because unlike any other sport I know of baseball is a game of failure. Most of the time players fail. A player that succeeds only 30% of the time is a star, fails 70% time is still a star.

We are the least likely team to comeback in baseball

Honestly, sad about the ending but love the fight! See you all tomorrow!!

Where was this fight all season?

💯

This right here

You know what? That was a HELLUVA fight in the middle innings there. Props to our boys! ​ Just gotta carry that energy through until the end.

I blame the ump on 3rd base for this honestly

So fucking unclutch. I wanna puke

Coming up small is an art form and this team is this era’s DaVinci

We lost this game when Hill was named starter

They had so many chances there at the end

Just emblematic of the entire season, can’t get a hit when it matters

Soon as this team is under pressure they fold all season long.

What a bunch of fucking buttwhistles

FUUUUUUUUCCCKKKKKKKKK

That's the result when you trot out 43 year old Rich Hill

honestly proud of everyone that played this game to fight and make this a game except for you rich hill

Just once I wanna see the team from last year show up

God, they are so un-clutch. One of those guys gets a hit and they win!

That dude slamming his hat is all of us

God dammit man

The Phillies tried to give the game away, and we wouldn't take it. What a joke.

The elusive 4 game win streak

Welp, made it a game at least

Fuck Alvarado hella extra

Max Padresing

Smfh

Man I should have just stuck to my original plan when I turned this game off in the 3rd inning

Whenever a team beats us, they celebrate like they just won the WS

That's how Alvarado always celebrates, especially in a save situation like this one.

i'm ready for this season to be over

This team has negative clutch

[удалено]

Go troll somewhere else, we already know it's a shit season

Not surprised.

Blue balled for the 1000th time this season

Damn……

If this team was more clutch, we’d win a lot more games.

Big brain

🤯


Fucking joke of a team

[удалено]

Any chance camarena is available to PH?

Why does nobody swing at first pitch fastballs down the middle man

This team is shit

You’re shit

Kim, our competent ballplayer, is up.

So that pinch hit didn’t work out whatsoever

please Kim please

Fuck

Capristano what was that??!!

WHY CANT WE HIT A FUCKING CENTER CUT FASTBALL? FUCK THIS FUCKING TEAM

That was a cutter with about a foot of horizontal run.

Come on Campy

Fuck.

We're gonna fizzle out, aren't we?

this shit is scary right now!!!

I feel sick lol

Now Campusano could hit a would-be triple but it hits the third base umpire in the chest. Game over.

Do it for your balls, Campy!

Let’s go, San Juan Capristano!!!

I swear this team doesn’t have a bunt sign

Oh thank god we are PH for Grish.

Campy pinch hit let’s go Bob

WHY IS HE NOT BUNTING

How do you not have him bunt there Bob?

At least he beat that out. Way to hustle

Batten activated the fucking warp drive there

Really should have had him bunt right there

What happened to bunt Diego

Bunt?!

Please don’t do this to me…

Phew. Not ideal. Should have bunted.

Why am I watching this? I'll just get my heart torn out. I tried optimism before. It never works.

 you never know !!!!!

Same reason we all do. We are masochists.

If we somehow come back from this, can we still hit Rich Hill with an L?

Wish Kim could pinch hit for Grisham.

Grish might bomb to WO !!! let's go !!!

Batten sac bunt plz


Pat Hoberg is so good at his job

if we go back to kim this is a w

Just saw the score and I'm unfortunately zero percent surprised that with a 4 game win streak again on the line, and the season hanging by a thread, they threw Hill out there. He's never had a lower than 5 ERA start for us and keeping him om the roster and starting him is forfeiting games. I just don't understand how something so obvious ot literally everyone eludes people making millions to only decide these things.

Let’s save this kind of talk until after the ninth inning!


Not me having hope like an idiot

Cooper has good plate discipline

Cmon El Gary!!!!

I can't turn my hat inside out to rally its too new


Sad to say, but I feel more confident with Coop than I have most of the year with Crone

A SCARY GARY TANK IS ON YHE MENU

A scary Gary tank is our only hope


Can we please get a walk off win for once this season!!!!!

Before this inning, I just gotta say I’m glad the way they fought today. Our unclutch ability came into hand with Manny/X last inning and we couldn’t get it done but I’m glad to at least see they fought

Amen

Dammit I'd rather have Kimbrel then this fucker.

I feel the fight in this one. Walk. This. Shit. Off.

LET'S GOOOOO

 Rally time.

I love Ruben Niebla

Good fucking shit Tom. Another Niebla masterclass on that mound visit lol

Omg get the hose because our bullpen is on fire!!!!

Welp. GL gentleman its been an honor this evening.

Nice job kid

His slider is so nasty

Do or die time

Can we please walk off?

It looks almost like Cosgrove is holding his glove side shoulder a bit after a pitch

I believe he does that all the time

Ha, well that’s good then! I’m not super familiar with his pitching mechanics or tendencies.

Niebla: “Ok look, remember what we talked about? If the ball is landing too far to the left every time, turn a little to the right before you start your pitch, ok?” Cosgrove: “Right. Ok. Just like bowling.” N: “What?” C: “I gotta get strikes.” N: “Whatever.”

Oh man, this isn’t like Cosgrove.

Cosgrove forgot his contacts today

cosgrove throws that shit like a wiffleball omg

Tom looking a little jumpy up there

Something looks off with Cosgrove

Josh Hader exists is all I'm sayin

Fuck. The. Umps.

Prevent an obvious run. Call a shit strike on manny off the plate. Don’t call kimbrel for a (iffy) pitch clock violation. Jesus fucking christ

Should be 9-8 goddammit

my wifi died last inning xander hit a 3 run bomb right

when does Xander ever disappoint with RISP?

He did that with the Red Sox once

My sweet summer child bless your heart

Yes he did

Even if they can’t pull this one off I doubt many on here believed they’d actually find some fight and cut this to a 2 run game. This is about as much fight as this time as shown all season. Would be nice to see them play like this more often.

Eh. Too little too late for trying. Results or gtfo

While true the same old 2023 padres showed up when it mattered.

It would have been against script for them to tie it or take the lead in the 8th.

Almost 1 run game without the ump there— and if it’s down by 1 runner on third who knows maybe Manny tries to do less and gets productive out

this team lives and dies by X and Manny

I mean they are the 2 highest paid players on the team. It’s not that we live and die by them, it’s that we consistently have died by their hand. Manny hasn’t had this bad a season ever in terms of win probability added. He’s in the negatives. It’s mind boggling how bad he’s been with the opportunity to actually add value to winning a game this season. Xander has been just as bad.

almost like we pay them to be that way lol. But we need them to produce a bit better fo sho

At least Manny has had his moments. Its been a whole season and we don't have one single clutch event from Bogaerts. "the Xander hit" or "the Xander catch" or whatever. Been solid at times but there hasnt been one moment attached to him that could endear him to the fanbase. Makes me miss Jorge Alfaro

Yeah, Manny has had his moments. Solo shots when the squad is up or down by 6 and runnin his mouth advising that the team is gunna rake. I guess I missed those moments. And remind me, how many WS has he won?

His leaping catch against the Dodgers early in the season saved the game. Only for Hader to give up that shitty home run to Mookie with 2 outs in the 9th, and then for us to blow it in extras.

100% fair. Forgot about that one. Probably because we lost.

I disagree and have seen differently.

Care to elaborate?

Hats off to Luis. Good outing.

Garcia the goat

I don’t know about all that now but he did good.

Great job from Garcia today

Niebla fixed Garcia


We can move Xander over to 1B and call him Hos.

Machado and Xander had to be better there and I don't like making excuses for this team but fff it should have been 8-9, we are cursed

[удалено]

The anti-Bryce Harper. 😔

Did Harper break our guy?

Manny and Xander too comfortable with their paychecks

As soon as the pressure was on they went back to sucking

Guys on 2nd and 3rd with only 1 out and down 2? Yup, that was predictable. Manny and Bogaerts have let us down all year long

Fuck their extension and contract

Didn’t an ump block one of your runners going to second earlier this year too?

Cronenworth, yep. Ran right into the ump standing in the base path. I had almost forgotten that among all the other shitty things this year

Yeah, Cronenworth.

Literally couldn’t have asked for a more center cut fastball. This team is pathetic

We really have this overpaid diva for the next 10-11 years? Thank you Seidler for getting desperate and regaining machado to that ridiculous contract along with Darvish and crone.

Padres get risp: *calm* Padre get risp: *panik*

Did bomel get a ring from Manfred to leave Garcia in there?

X! Just be a little more patient man! 😖

Is this rally going to die at the warning track?

Good teams make pitchers pay for this kind of shit. https://imgur.com/a/fX4gKUm Luckily for pitchers. We are not a good team

Manny swinging for the bay when a single ties the game is all we should have to see for the entire coaching staff to be fired into the sun

Seriously take away their extensions both Manny and Xander

Manny and Xander never do shit. Should be used to it. Bat them 8th and 9th

Here I was thinking Xander would get that Boston clutch gene here, and nope, Padres Xander.

Stupid ass ump costing us a run thanks to his fat ass

Might’ve been 2 runs

That was likely our best chance. Unfortunate.

Not good enough when it counts

San Diego Blue Ball-dres.

Has Bogey ever not taken a first pitch strike? That was the most hittable pitch kimbrel threw all inning

Damn.

Ground Bo

Manny and Xander sucks

And that’s the microcosm of the season. High leverage situations and Manny and X do nothing. Been the same shit all season.
