The only time I saw a game at Petco Park was when my brother took me to see Padres vs. Astros.

A young Jake Peavy faced a veteran Roger Clemens in that game. Clemens gave up 5 hits total … and one of them was to Peavy.

If I remember correctly, the Padres won 2-0, and a former Red Sox player (I forget his name) hit a homer off the Rocket.

Holy crap, I found the game log on retrosheet.org. The ex Red Sox in question was Brian Giles, and the game was played on August 23rd, 2005 … fourteen years ago to the day.

JD justifies his presence in an NL game with a 3-run shot.

Is this a home game? Crowd sounds pro-Boston.
