The End of Game 5 of the World Series
Phillies 4 Rays 3 Most important news up top....no National Anthem tonight.....apparently Duran Duran wasn't available. Or half of Duran Duran wasn't available. Anyway....Phillies win the series. Hamels was the MVP. Everyone's favorite former Jay, Eric Hinske, struck out to end it all. Chase...

When play resumes tonight in World Series Game 5A, we all know that the Phillies will have one clear advantage in the tie ballgame: they get 12 outs, whereas the Rays only get 9. But there's another advantage for the Phillies that I haven't seen discussed: where the lineups left off. For the...

Game Recap for Game 4 of the World Series
Phillies 10 Rays 2 I missed up and called it game 3 in the title of the game thread. To continue the topic of the Nation Anthem, Patti LaBelle screamed her way, slowly thru some vocal gymnastics. I kind of like Patti LaBelle, but she sings everything at the sort of intensity and, to me in this...
