**OT**SanÿDiego (11-2) at SanÿFrancisco (8-5)
10:05pm EDT

The San Diego Padres, off to their best start ever, try to extend their longest winning streak in nearly 16 years as they open a brief two-game set against the San Francisco Giants.

The Padres have posted eight straight victories, matching the club's third-longest winning streak ever, set previously from July 26th-August 3rd, 1980. They won 11 in a row from April 14th-27th, 1982, and had a 10-game winning streak from July 25th-August 4th, 1978.

After being "Frosted" by the Marlins in the play-offs last season, the Giants intend to kiss-up to the Padres in hopes of getting some good deals on Qualcomm phones. Last year, Giant's Manager Dusty Baker attributed the losses to the Marlins to poor communication with the bullpen. "My use of Ericcson TDMA phone resulted in both lousy call quality and dropped calls at critical times. It was simply disastrous. This year, Pac Bell officials have agreed to allow me to use a "high quality Qualcomm Phone" as long as I place a Pac Bell sticker over the Sprint logo. Since Pac Bell refuses to comp us a competitor's phone, we shall be smoozing the Padres tonight who have ties to Qualcomm. We and the rest of the world will surely win with CDMA."
