70's Retro Day
I know, I know...I didn't dress up for retro day. I tried to make amends for it by throwing on the retro wig along with intern Kerri. The Award for best costume among Channel 4 employees went to Steve Quis in a landslide. If you didn't catch his white leisure suit on the Honda Dealers Pre-Game show, well, you missed some TV magic.
The bigger story last night was the performance of Jake Peavy as he made history with another double digit strikeout performance. Here's the Elias Sports Bureau to fill us in...
Jake Peavy had at least 10 strikeouts while throwing no more than seven innings for the fourth consecutive game. He's the only major-league pitcher since 1900 to have of at least 10 strikeouts in no more than seven innings in four straight games.

No pitcher has had four straight double-digit strikeout games regardless of his number of innings pitched since Randy Johnson did it for the 2004 Diamondbacks.
In addition, we now know that Peavy likes pitching in throwback uniforms. Last year on May 6th he went 6 strong innings against the Cubs while wearing a Padres uniform from 1948. Between the PCL uniforms and the 1972 Padres look from last night, Jake Peavy is now 1-0 with a 0.69 ERA while wearing throwback uniform. And that's the kind of hard hitting analysis you'll find on this blog.

Man, you look just like Shane McMahon (son of Vince, WWE) in that photo. I liked the line last night that instead of "throwback" jerseys that they might be called "throw-up" jerseys. They aren't THAT bad, but, yeesh, leave the past in the past.
