Open Thread: World Series Game 2 (cont)
We 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.

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.
