Carlos Hernandez came to the Padres from the Dodgers in 1997. He was the starting catcher for much of 1998. For some reason, my memory deceived me as I have always remembered him as an above average backstop. In fact, he only had an OPS+ of 83 that season. Nonetheless, I will always have fond memories of Carlos, and for that reason, I proudly gave him a standing ovation when his name was announced on Saturday night. Thanks for the memories Carlos!
