2. "The Giants win the Pennant! The Giants win the Pennant"
Although it was five years before I was born I still get chills hearing those words.

8. "He slides into second with a stand up double." from Jerry Coleman
Youve got to love "Colemanisms" if you listened to San Diego Padre radio broadcasts over the last 30+ years.

http://www.baseball-almanac.com/quotes/quocole.shtml

"If (Pete) Rose's streak was still intact, with that single to left, the fans would be throwing babies out of the upper deck."

"On the mound is Randy Jones, the left-hander with the Karl Marx hairdo."

"Gaylord Perry and Willie McCovey should know each other like a book. They've been ex-teammates for years now."

9. LOLOL Wish I had tried to pick up Padres games.
One of the Angels' early brodcasters was none other than Dick Enberg. He was the best they've ever had.
