Alex Miniak and three-time All-Star Heath Bell break down a wild weekend at Petco Park, where the Padres took two of three from the Dodgers in front of packed houses. From Yu Darvish’s vintage performance to Nestor Cortes carving up the lineup, and Ramón Laureano’s grand slam-saver on Sunday, the guys go game-by-game on what it all means for the NL West race.
Paws up — it’s National Dog Day! Alex introduces his boy Milo while Heath brings along Coco Chanel for some four-legged fun.
