I used to be the San Diego Union-Tribune sports editor. Then I wasn't. Then I was again. Now I'm not, permanently.

And in the three games before Friday, all against Dodgers, they were 0-5. Not sure what’s worse … only five chances or going 0-22. Let’s call it a draw.

AJ Cassavell@AJCassavell

Final: Phillies 3, Padres 0 Kyle Schwarber and Brandon Marsh homered, and that was more than enough for the Phillies against a Padres offense that hasn't recorded a hit with a runner in scoring position since Friday. They're 0-for-22 with RISP in their last three games.

Not sure what’s less surprising, what Annie noted below or that Schwarber homered in first AB. Call it a draw.

#Padres had bases loaded, no outs, against Luzardo in first inning, but were unable to capitalize. #Phillies lead 1-0.

I visited Normandy last month and it was a powerful experience. Not just today but every day, we should remember the sacrifice of all those who served there and elsewhere.

Every year, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil. #MemorialDayWeekend

The president honoring Memorial Day by insulting half the country, as if millions of Democrats haven’t fought and died for the United States. What an absolute disgrace.

@comedybbq Lol you actually think that’s what I wrote. I was contradicting the person who wrote what you said I wrote.

I have my issues with some of what this organization does but does anyone actually believe the Padres would do this? The team that wears camo uniforms every Sunday at home? The Marines always leave at a designated time before the end of the game.

The San Diego Padres kicked US Marines out of their section on Memorial Day Weekend so a bunch of soy boys can run around shirtless for attention. Can this organization sink any lower?

@paulsen_smw Feels like every network has tried to recreate it for the last quarter-century. It’s why so many basketball and football telecasts are not as good as they should be because camera is always pulling back from action hoping to get great crowd shots. You have juice … make it stop!

Credit to Tirico for noticing the similarities between wide shot of Spurs crowd erupting on Wemby three and Knicks crowd erupting on Larry Johnson's 4-point play in '99. NBC *loved* that Larry Johnson shot and kept trying to recreate it on every big three the next few years.

The “tarps off” trend has arrived at Petco, in the area vacated by the Marines. At least it’s better than the wave.

Gotta feel for Malukas and also huge credit to him for giving this interview at a time when we’ve seen so many athletes refuse. Can see how much it hurt.

@Tatas_jr Wins are great. But this is not sustainable. And maybe they’ll hit. But season is almost one-third complete and there are no signs.

U-T published this comment a week ago when Padres were hitting .223. After going 2-26 tonight they’re now at .219, worst in all of MLB. But just you wait. And while you do, at least you have all those highlights of them hitting on those endless house ads on the telecasts.

@FriarCycle They’ve shown plenty of them. They just aren’t consistent.

FriarCycle@FriarCycle·2d

@JayPosnerSD Maybe things have changed in the last couple years but I thought the umpire union demanded that "close plays" not get replays in the stadium if they aren't challenged. To prevent the crowd from getting pissed if the call was wrong

Now the video board at Petco won’t even show good plays by Padres players. Duran just made a tremendous throw to get a potential base stealer who had a good jump and we got nothing. They must have been busy cuing up the next replay of a grounder. Fans deserve better.

@sbpadres To me it’s a part of the fan experience and I think it could and should be handled better for people who pay to go to games. Why spend big money for a nice replay board if you’re not going to show relevant replays?

This is an official government account in a democracy. This is what Orbanism looks like. The president bragging, via AI video, that he forced a comedian who mocked him off the air and ‘into the trash’.

@JayPosnerSD It’s really bad. Just filled out a survey and the only 1 star and comment was related to the replays or lack thereof.

@SportsSurveys2 @Swingingfriar1 I agree there is no decline in interest. I think they have overreached on prices for some games including these three.

@Swingingfriar1 @JayPosnerSD Declining fan interest & potential regression into the older attendance trends

Jay Posner@JayPosnerSD·5d

Padres announced a sellout tonight of 41,888. Largest crowd of series but still more than 3K shy of smallest crowd for three early week games vs. Dodgers last June. Noticeably fewer people in the Park tonight; let’s see if that’s the case next month when LA back on a weekend.
