For the baseball game Greg”Mad Dog”Madduxhad plenty to be mad about going 7 innings giving up only 5 hits and one run it was earned(the only run) it was one bad pitch by Maddux that was P.Burrell’s 28th homer of the year, also had 4 strikeouts.

After a long day off, The San Diego Padres return to their losing ways of 08′, being out slugged by the Brewers; usually you hear something like “the pads out slugged by brewers” not surprised but when it is 5-2 you think whats wrong with the Brew Crew.

On the Saturday night game in San Diego most of The San Diego Padres fans were preparing for the Chargers Pre-Season Game vs. Dallas, but for those who where flipping back n’ forth they saw a very good pitched game by “Greg Mad Dog Maddux” the 3rd straight that the rest of the Padres lineup back him scoring wise. He went six innings giving up 6 hits 2 runs both earned one BB 4 strikeouts and gave up one home run; very solid again, I hope he get his shot at winning at least 10 games this year making it 20 years with least 10 or more games won.
