Tatis, Jr. and Merrill are capable of having these kind of games, where they can carry the entire team offensively and defensively.  It's nice to know they will be Padres for many years to come and my grandkids can see them in their prime.  Recently, Taty has shown that loose explosive swing he had when he first came up, before he underwent surgery on his shoulders.  It's good to see him smiling and laughing - brings a lot of energy and spirit to the club.  Let's win the series!  GO PADRES!!!
