Lava Man and Towers is Embarrased, Padres roll!

Bud Black is pipen hot mad and Kevin Towers does not know which way to turn.

Two nights ago the little team that couldn't, rallied for a 5-3 victory at PETCO, ending a 6 game losing streak and putting a little confidence back into the club.

Kevin Correia where have you been? 7 strong innings of work when the club needed an "ace" to pick up the team. Now only if Jake and Chris had that kind of run support they would be world beaters.

Then last night they go 16 innings to get the win. The Padres have not given up and it is good to see the spirit and drive these guys have at this point of the season. They could be mailing it in playing for paychecks, but the young guys may never get this chance again.

Now we need Henry Blanco to find his bat and before we release Giles get a few more hits out of him. I was surprised to see Eck get called out looking as well as Giles. That just does not happen to often.

Peavy is on the hill today which "should" convert to a win. A three game winning streak? That would be awesome. Good luck boys!

Peace
