PrintWe have an excellent game going on tonight; the score is 1-1 as the Yankees come to bat in the bottom of the sixth inning. The Phillies scored on a single and the Yankees on a solo HR by Teixeira. Both pitchers are dealing.

I've never flagged any post on AN
but on the Raiders blog I do it everytime I go on the site which is why I’m going to stop going on that site.
The problem with flagging
is that you’re reporting the post to the mods. In S&BP’s case…you might as well not bother.

argumentative stats guys went too far with me. I forget who it was. It wasn’t PT.

Hey, I just bought the team from Lew Wolff... who wants to play third?
Yeah, I'm amazed overall by the lack of homeruns - these two sides, this shoebox of a stadium...
is it great pitching, cold weather, or a combination?
Or just Derek Jeter chosing not to hit homers, to make it all the more dramatic when he does
I think Derek Jeter is setting the whole arc of the series with his secret powers
so that he wins it in the bottom of the 9th of Game 7, changes his name to Derek Jesus and ascends to the Heavens as the whole world watches.

regardless of the home town calls,
the Phillies radio gang is pretty awesome.

Yeah, even without Kalas they're good
although Gary Matthews is a bit of a cliche-flinger. Wheeler and Andersen can be pretty sarcastic, in a good way.
"And Julio Franco is batting right-handed!" -- Wayne Hagin, A's radio play-by-play, mid-80s
Did the batter run to 1st base on that blown call?
if not then the umps couldn’t reverse the call even if they wanted to right?

Howard's throw to 2B was wide, and Posada would have been safe it it had been a grounder

but what about the batter? i didn’t get a good look and didn’t see if he kept running.

Like a drunk at the opera,
I recognize all of those words and letters,

so the Phillies really are quite resilient.
I don’t know that the Yankees are used to the other team being the resilient ones.
