Pittsburgh Pirates @ San Diego Padres
Ben Davis, one of the biggest Padres busts ever, actually hit a home run in this game. I can't believe I was there to see it. Adam Eaton was sharp, going 7 innings just allowing 1 run on 4 hits. The Padres offense, featuring classic Friars like Santiago Perez and Donaldo Mendez, put up 8 runs against Pirates pitching. The strangest thing about this stub is the choice to put Kevin Walker on it. He was just a relief pitcher, and ended up pitching 16 games in 2001 before arm problems got the best of him.
