Open Thread - World Series Game 2
In the ALCS, the Tampa Bay Rays dropped game 1 to the Red Sox, 2-0. In the second contest, the team's offense woke up, winning 9-8 in the first volley of what was eventually a 7-game series victory. After last night's close contest that saw the Rays vanquished 3-2 by the Phillies, they are looking again for the same Game Two magic. Taking the mound for the Rays will be James Shields, who sported a 14-8 record and 3.56 ERA, as well as a 4:1 strikeout/walk ratio in the regular season. He will be opposed by the Phils' Brett Myers, who was inconsistent in the 2008 campaign, muddling through to a 10-13 record and 4.55 ERA.
Game time is 5:29 Pacific Time. Try not to fill up the thread before first pitch.

reason I ask is: Everyone keeps mentioning Giambi,
and I see 5 of the first 6 A’s batters being a lefty, assuming Giambi was back in the lineup

We were watching the Ryan Howard commercial and my dad asks me
“Do you notice anything weird about this commercial?”
My mom takes one look at Ryan Howard and blurts out “I got it! He looks like Ken Griffey Jr.!”
(it was really that RHo was in his away uni and you could tell that the bit was filmed at Shea in the Mets dugout)
