If you enjoyed watching the Padres play the Colorado Rockies at Petco Park on Tuesday night, get used to it.
The teams will play six times at Petco Park this season, before they ever meet in Colorado.
Advantage, Rockies; if it comes down to the end of the season between these two teams.
For some reason, the Major League Baseball schedule is more quirky than ever this season … especially for the Padres.
They play the Los Angeles Dodgers nine times in September, the first time one can ever recall teams meeting in three series during the same month.
And playing the Rockies nine times in Colorado from June 30 on is not a picnic for the Padres.
With the Padres already being in a five-team division in the NL West, somebody always is going to be playing outside of the division. In fact, six of San Diego’s last nine games are against the Washington Nationals and Pittsburgh Pirates.
But playing the Rockies six times in San Diego through May 11, then not visiting Colorado until June 30?
That’s a little too strange.

Who made out this schedule? It seems a little un-balanced to me. The Padres should have some home games late in the season too against Colorado.
