Happy Halloween from Redondo Beach !

Rumor has it that the Real Yoyo Ma will be in the Parade today!

And this is the Real Yoyo Ma...He will be on Float #4 with Brett Myers...The Guy with the Automatic Weapon and Ear Protectors!

Will You Be At The Parade ?

I read that the Largest Parade in Philadelphia History was the 1974 Flyer Parade! Will this one TOP It?

He did it one More Time!

This Lidge guy has had the Time of His Life! (and he kept us sweating). This one Feels better than the one in 1980. This Team came from a- way out there! Charlie for Manager of the Year!!!

I Need A Ruling!

THE BLOG ADVISER SAYS, "MAINTAIN YOUR POSITION SLIM and YOU GUYS"!! (although diapers should be changed)

If the game is to resume EXACTLY (quit your groaning Jason it's for emphasis) where it left off, does that mean I have to finish my stale beer left in Monday's glass and the soggy nacho chips and melted ice cream? Do I need to be in the middle of dozing (is dozing a word?) off when the game starts? Do I wear my same lucky boxers while watching? I need to know. It's sooooo confusing. Please advise.

Bud-not-weiser...

Bud Selig and MLB blew this one... If Selig said he "wouldn't cut the game short and reward the Phillies the game" then why did he let the Rays bat in the top of the 6th in that slop? Why not stop it at the end of the 5th? Making the Phillies defend on that field was totally unfair. They should have stopped it at the end of the 5th and pick it back up on the top of the 6th.

And another thing... that FOX tracker Strike Zone is the same size for every player... Doesn't a strike zone differ on the size of the player? ESPN's K-Zone is the best strike tracker out there. ESPN, please buy the World Series!

Apparently, it's all in the Hands of this Dork!

• Does the Game resume after the Bottom of the 5th Inning?
• Does the Game resume at the Middle of the 6th Inning?

Cause the Rules have all Changed !...................................

And as for that "hollywood guy" in the last Post...who needs 80 Degrees and Sunny? What kinda FUN is that ?

You know what?

If we had tech savvy Family Fans here we would be doing something like Web Camming, or Yahoo Messenger with Voice during this Game!

2-0 in Second!

GO PHILS !!!

10:02 This game is starting to remind me of the Saturday Night game in 1977(?) when Tommy John just served up ground balls to the Phils in the pouring rain. Only difference? Tonite it is Pop Ups in the Rain!

GO PHILS!!!

10:22 PM Allright, update here...that Desperate Housewife 3rd baseman for the Rays Smacked a single ball and a man Scored, for the Rays. Making it 2-1 Phils.

........................

10:39PM This is Ridiculous! 2-2 AND RAIN WATER IS SEEPING THRU MY TV! 39 degrees, sopping WET and the Barons of Baseball say "SLOG ON"! Ridiculous! Bottom of the 6th, we will see if they do the Delay thing...

..........................

10:43 Yep...RAIN DELAY! and so far the Phils have all the calls go their way and it is 2-2! GULP!

.........................

GO PHILS!!!

..........................

AND now we hear about the "Suspended Game Rule"**put in effect in 2007! Ugh!

...................

**Under the Normal Rules of Baseball, if this game is not continued because of weather, the run the Rays scored in the Top of the 6th would be eliminated, cause the Home Team (the phils) did not come to Bat. The Game would revert to the end of the 5th, which is an Official Game, and the Phils would now be World Champs!

WOE IS US...

......................

GO PHILS!!!

SAVED BY THE D STREET SWINGERS!!!

***An Update from I-95*** After two hours of waving my Phillies Pennant, I HAVE BEEN SAVED! The D Street Swingers have stepped up. On their way back from Tampa, they have picked me up! For some reason they were driving the wrong way on the freeway. Apparently they were "swinging" and didn't realize north from south. We are on our way to the game. See you all there. Thanks D Street Swingers!
