Baseball Playoff Talk

I can't imagine the Phillies being more pathetic. RISP every inning for the past 3 innings and no dice.
Make that 4 innings.

Don't get me wrong, the Phils played TERRIBLY today. All I'm saying is that the home plate ump made two horrible calls that ended up costing them a run, and cost them an out in the 9th. Those calls MAY have screwed the game, although the Phillies didn't exactly deserve to win.

8 to 2 with one out in the bottom of the 8th. Cole Hamels on the mound tomorrow night. I'd say my Phillies are a lock! I remember like yesterday the 1980 final out with Tug McGraw. I'm so pumped! I can feel a repeat Monday night with Lidge.

OMG HOWARD WENT DEEP AGAIN!!!! Make that 10-2. I've been givin him grief for not being on point in the post season. I guess he heard me! Two homers tonight, and one last night...hahaha

Beautiful game tonight, couldn't have been better. Made up for leaving men on base.
1 more night!!

That was a freaking slugfest. I found Blanton's HR hilarious!

[Grndslmhttr3]

Lovely weather we're having, isn't it?! Cold as hell out, and it was freaking SNOWING earlier. Tomorrow it ends!

GOOOOOO PHILLIES!!!!! That's all I have to say. World Champs 1980, 2008.

[Grndslmhttr3]

YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been waiting my whole LIFE for this! Shame that Harry didn't announce it... :( For some reason 1210 wasn't getting any reception. GO PHILS!

FINALLY A CHAMPIONSHIP IN PHILLY!!!!!!!!!!! Of all the teams, I'm glad the Phils got it. I had a chance to go tonight, a friend couldn't make it and was going to give me his ticket stub. Unfortunately i couldn't make it either.

Now for the birds to keep the train rolling...

Congrats Philly Phans, close games (besides the 4th) but in the end Philly was a much better team. I know on Wednesday, TB being down one in the 9th with Lidge, it was a lock. Although, it did look like there was a chance to tie. The hour and a half game on Wednesday was awesome, maybe baseball should have more double headers, the first game 9 innings, the second a 4 inning game at prime time

That's a pretty good idea! I always thought there should be a play clock on the pitcher like in other sports. I wish every pitcher had to throw at a pace like Cole Hamels. We don't like slow play in any sports.

I just got back from the parade, and god damn, it may have been the most amazing thing I've personally seen in Philly.
