And on the day the Padres take on the Dodgers in Game One of the NLDS, Padres fans say they’re confident the Friars are ready to get the job done.

James Hart, a Padres fan says, “It’s special to see them, it’s very hard to get into the playoffs, no matter what sport it is. But when you make it, it’s a statement for the team, now they need to go perform and execute and that’s the trick.”
