Oh how we chirp when we are winning!

By , 06:41 AM

After the Padres beat the Giants last night in a pitcher’s duel (the Giants only allowed 2 hits in the loss), here’s what the Padres starter, Chris Young, said after the game:

“We’ve got great character in here and I don’t think we’re going to panic or worry, especially in close games,” Young said. “The way our bullpen is, we feel like if we can keep it close, our bullpen is going to hold it for us, then we’ll push across a few runs and win it.”

Reminds me of some other team chirping just a few days ago…
