A Padres Game I Attended: Mets at Padres, April 22, 2006

This game didn't go too well.

It was a chilly Saturday night in the Diego. My Dad and I had choice seats along the third base line. I drank quite a few beers and remember saying over and over again on our way out of the stadium, "Three hits? All we got was three hits?"

I'm sure that didn't annoy anyone.

In fact, I don't even remember Xavier Nady's home run. That probably upset me at the time. Why? Because he was on the Mets. The only Padres run was a second inning bomb by Mike Piazza off Pedro Martinez.

When I tell my grandkids I saw Mike Piazza hit a home run off Pedro Martinez, I'm going to tell them it happened in 2000, not 2006.
