People don't think about the San Diego Padres that much. It's not without good reason, they've only been to the playoffs five times, twice making and losing in the World Series. They play in a lovely stadium in a lovely town that has many things going for it, so baseball falls by the wayside.
You'd think the sports fans there would commit to the Padres with the Chargers jerking them around and evidently leaving. But that's neither here nor there. The Padres do a good job of playing the "anonymous competition" role in baseball, being one of those teams that marquee names like the San Francisco Giants of Los Angeles Dodgers need on their schedule.
