Los Angeles Dodgers vs San Diego Padres
Most rivalries get inherited from grandparents. This one was built in real time, in front of people who can remember when neither club particularly cared about the other, which is precisely why it burns hotter than the polite old ones.
When San Diego comes north late in a season, Chavez Ravine turns into something else entirely. The yellow-clad Friars faithful make an alarming amount of noise in enemy territory. A blue-clad sellout roars back down at them. Nobody in the building is neutral, and the arguments in the aisles are half the entertainment.
The stakes are the other half. A late divisional meeting like this can swing the West, and both dugouts manage it like October arrived early — pitching changes in the sixth that would be unthinkable in April.
Get there early, take the skyline in from the top deck, and bring the friend who claims baseball is slow. This ends that argument permanently.
