So good to see Ishii and Saito!!
I remember Ishii hitting a homerun in San Diego. The only run the Dodgers scored. Then remember Saito crying bc he gave up the go ahead the run in the back to back to back to back game 9/18/06

He may have cried, but he didn;t give up the go ahead run in that game. The Padres were up by a run going into the 9th, and Saito gave up 3 more to make it a 4 run lead for the Padres, that the Dodgers erased in the bottom of the 9th with the 4 homers in a row. Sele then gave up a run in the 10th and became the winning pitcher when Nomar hit the 2 run homer to end the game.
