A very Padres-centric page. I made the Pat Murphy after he was named manager. I started making the cards of current Padres in the current Heritage style because it was easier to make than the computer generated graphics of the current cards. If I was able to find good pictures of the coaches I made cards of them. I have gotten all of these particular Padres cards signed. Recognize any of these guys?

I know Hahn and Kilkenny from other Topps sets. Both played before I started following baseball.
Don Hahn I remember from the Mets teams when I first getting into baseball as a kid. Always liked him.
I'm starting a new 0-fer streak. Although... I'm kinda bummed that I'm not familiar with Kilkenny since he played with my two favorite teams.
