The Phillies Are Going To The World Series

It remains to be seen whom they will play, but we could know as soon as tomorrow. Baseballgirl was at the game tonight, and I imagine she will have an "up close and personal" game wrap when she gets home. Stay tuned. Meanwhile, congratulations to the Phillies, so clearly the better team in this series.

NO VACATION FOR YOU!

I would have gone with Korto, but I don’t have a problem with Leanne – though she could be a bit of a snot, just like Kenley.
