World Series Game 1 Live Thread
mlb.com ^ | 10/22/08 | raccoonradio

Posted on 10/22/2008 11:17:19 AM PDT by raccoonradio

I'll at least start a WS Game 1 thread (anyone got a ping list, ping it here). Rays-Phillies at Tampa. btw, had the Red Sox won on Sunday night, tonight's game 1 would have been at Fenway park; weather.com predicts lows in the 30s tonight in Boston (what could have been...) Instead, More Cowbell in St. Petersburg. Inside.

Philadelphia 92-70 (Road: 44-37) 8:35pm ET Tampa Bay 97-65 (Home: 57-24) TV: FOX PHI: C. Hamels (0-0, NA) TB: S. Kazmir (0-0, NA)

Heck, I'm the only one interested here. So, I'll talk to myself.

Still 3-2, top of the ninth.
If the Phillies can come home with 1-1 they are in good shape.
I really don't care. Just want to see good games and this is a good one.

Imagine, walking the player in front of Ryan Howard to get to him. What a crazy move. Or is it?

Here we go, bottom of the ninth now. Brad Lidge up pitching. Still 3-2 Phillies.

A lot of people don't like these kind of games.........so close. But this has been outstanding baseball. And, it ain't over.

5th inning DP killed the game for the rays.

Pray for a sweep or at least a 4-1 win for the Phillies... Then there will be no GAME 6 and no one will watch Obamas speech. 3 out of 4 of the last 4 world series were sweeps and the other one was a 4-1 victory.

Though now that Nielson has declared support for Obama I don’t know if we can believe any ratings coming from them anymore.

that the DP did hurt

BUT I think you have to admit it could have EASILY been like 12-2 or 13-2 on the other side as well

The phillies left TONS of guys on base and your pitch has to be given credit for getting out of those tight jams

good luck tonight- I would say its do or die for the rays

Yeah - A lot of situations where a timely hit would have taken the rays out for the nite.

never do or die until the final out in baseball. A win would help though.

good luck
