The Padres Arrive to Face Hanley

Ethan J. Skolnick details how amazing Hanley's year has been...

"Ramirez hits day (.378) or night (.361), home (.350) or away (.384), against lefties (.313) or against righties (.386). He hits with nobody on (.359) or runners aboard (.373). Most ridiculous? He hits .457 with runners in scoring position and two out, when a lazy fly ball counts against him, not as a run-scoring sacrifice fly. That's the most pressurized situation in the sport. That's money time. That's the equivalent of Wade sinking virtually every game-winning shot, or Pennington tossing touchdowns on virtually every red zone trip."

Kevin Correia and Chris Coghlan will try to fend off the opposing teams tonight.

In August 28th games both the Padres and Marlins have won 5 of their last 8, including 2 of their last 3.
