With a wild 7-4, 11-inning victory over Seattle on Sunday afternoon, the Friars secured their spot at the table. Now, they’re coming for the big cake.
“You’ve seen what we can do,” said star shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr., the longstanding beacon of that bright future. “Everybody knows what we can do on this team. I know we ain’t settling just for this step. We’re going for way more.”
Greg Garcia, who grew up a die-hard Padres fan in El Cajon, Calif., hopped the dugout railing and skipped to the mound, the first to join the celebration.
Myers, who endured five straight losing seasons after his 2014 arrival, was the first player to pick up his postseason swag. He grabbed a “Postseason 2020” hat, turned it backwards and broke into a wide grin.
As the party spilled into the Padres’ clubhouse, Tatis salsa-ed. Then he did a split.
“For today and for the next couple hours, we’re going to enjoy it,” Tingler said. “We’re going to enjoy every freaking moment of it. … We hope to make it a special run. We will play a brand of ball that makes this city proud.”
The celebration is not what it could have been, of course. A playoff-starved city has been deprived of its chance to fully embrace the 2020 Padres due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Players and coaches have spoken longingly about what this season could’ve been like in front of a bustling Petco Park.
“Bringing playoff baseball back to San Diego, I just get emotional,” Tatis said. “I’ve seen all those fans out there cheering for us. This is all for them.”
Even without those fans, the Padres brought their own electricity. With a captivating brand of baseball — reliant on speed and power, velocity and finesse, and swagger most of all — the Padres are 34-20, trailing only the Dodgers for the best record in the NL.
After years of rebuilding, they’d eyed 2020 as the year they’d break through. They’ve accomplished that breakthrough. Now, they want to make clinching a habit.
“Hopefully [we] have a couple more celebrations like this,” said first baseman Eric Hosmer — who laid out a vision for precisely this type of turnaround when he signed a then-franchise-record contract in February 2018.
