Stay classy, San Diego: Station sets off Twitter feud with Indians fans
"If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." A local news station in San Diego decided not to follow that idiom Monday.
The Padres were set to start a series with the Indians in Cleveland but rain forced the game to be postponed. And when you reside in sunny San Diego there's no settling for less without some snark.
What's worse than starting the season 2-4? Going to Cleveland in April. Preview of @Padres at @Indians. #OnFriar http://t.co/AsytNRCLs8

The Indians took notice of the tweet and put it out there to the Tribe faithful...
Let 'em hear ya, Cleveland MT @nbcsandiego What's worse than starting the season 2-4? Going to Cleveland in April.

Who of course fired back with some colorful responses.
@kocsan @Indians @nbcsandiego so because the padres play in a warm city, its "unfair" to put them in cleveland in april?

@Kov65Ray @Indians @nbcsandiego Hi Ray I'd rather watch a game in CLE in April than a Padres game in Sept when they're 15 games out

@Indians @nbcsandiego San Diego still has a team?

Yes, it rains in Cleveland in April, as it does in many cities across the great U-S-of-A. And here's one for the fine folks in San Diego - while it may be warm in Cali, the Padres batters are anything but that, sporting a team average of .189 in their first six games.
