Mentioning how many different times over the last couple of decades that the Phillies have been in the post-season.
The Dodgers have one on and two out in the bottom of the ninth and are down 5-1.
I should sympathize with the Dodgers and their fans given the situation the Sox are in, but I don’t. Not really. I feel a little evil writing that but, screw it. Manny Ramirez in this year’s World Series would have damn near killed me.
Nomar is up. With two out. Nomar is someone I can sympathize with (for?). Nomar pops it up and the Phillies are your pennant winners. Congratulations, Phillies, I’m genuinely happy for you!
This week has been a tad surreal on many levels. All I ask is for the Red Sox to be competitive in Game 5 and I HOPE we get to see at LEAST three more games of Red Sox baseball.
Make it so, fellas, make it so.
There is no room for sympathy for anyone else right now. All energy must be focused on willing a win for the Hometown Team.
