The Padres’ geographic limitations on sales kept tickets in the hands of their fans for Game 3 of the NLDS, and they brought the noise.
SAN DIEGO — If you were a Dodger fan – to be precise, one of those thousands of Dodger fans who have made Petco Park a second home so often in recent seasons – you can at least be secure in the knowledge that you’re living in the heads of Padres management, rent free.
But if you’re a Padres fan living in Riverside, say, or Laguna Beach – and yes, that species does exist – and you could afford a Game 3 ticket but found yourself shut out because your zip code was just north of the artificial border where online orders were filled rather than rejected, do you figure you were just taking one for the team?
Obviously, the Padres’ season ticket holders resisted the siren song of the resale market and kept their tickets. As a result, this might have been the first time in a decade that the home team had a true home-field edge during a Dodgers-Padres game in San Diego.
