Recap: Your San Diego Padres recently passed their nemesis Atlanta Braved for the National League's best record and the franchise rewarded Bud Black with a contract extension through the 2013 season with club options for both 2014 and 2015. "This news comes at a time when the team is playing well, but my faith in Bud goes far beyond wins and losses," said GM Jed Hoyer. "He and his staff are exceptionally well prepared, he embraces the challenge of teaching young players and, most importantly, the players compete for him every night."
