Here comes the collapse.

Vezna31 · 10-23-2008, 12:51 AM

All the men LOB for the Phillies is driving me nuts!

Vezna31 · 10-23-2008, 01:03 AM

Whew...I have no nails left.

Hurkman · 10-23-2008, 01:05 AM

It wasn't pretty, but it's how the Phils have won all season. Just three more boys.

Jason · 10-23-2008, 01:19 AM

If there is such a thing as a completely unsatisfying World Series win...that was it.

Well thanks to Bartlett, you can go and grab your free Taco!!!!

Oh, and 3 out of the 4 last world series were sweeps. Just saying.

After seeing the Phils lose so many low scoring games for most of the year, it's nice to see them win this one. If they can win in Tampa Bay without having a big inning, I think that's overall a good thing.

Gastric ReFlux · 10-23-2008, 11:25 AM

A sweep would be really sweet, not just for the Phillies winning, but to reduce the painful exposure of Buck and McCarver. If baseball fades into a historical memory, those two's lack of broadcasting prowess may be primarily to blame. Fox baseball broadcasting sucks.

But they played on the road in those cities and played some home games in Orlando.

AnotherAlias · 10-23-2008, 09:04 PM

Obama, McCain and Kiefer. What a combination!!!

AnotherAlias · 10-23-2008, 09:05 PM

dola,

Mark Grace could be played by Kiefer BTW, in the upcoming Fox World Series movie.

AnotherAlias · 10-23-2008, 09:08 PM

Trola,

Cole Hamels. How does a guy go a mediocre 14-10, as far as win/loss this season, yet he wins game 1 of the WS? Looking pretty good AAMOF.

Jason Moyer · 10-23-2008, 10:07 PM

He would have won over 20 games this year if the Phillies had scored any runs for him.

Vezna31 · 10-23-2008, 10:23 PM

OMG...The Phillies are displaying the most pathetic hitting with RISP. Are they ever going to get a freakin hit???

Jason · 10-23-2008, 11:44 PM

The Phillies are looking like the Phillies of the last ten years. Do they not want to win the World Series?

Jason · 10-23-2008, 11:55 PM

Ryan Howard is going to kill the Phils.

No, the Phillies fans are going to kill Ryan Howard.

Vezna31 · 10-24-2008, 12:40 AM

Rollins should have been on base and would have scored on Howard's goundout. Pat Burrell should be batting with the score at 4-3, 2 out and a man on 2nd.

Good job to the umps winning one tonight

Jason · 10-24-2008, 01:26 AM

Yes, the home plate umpire seemed to be in the tank for Tampa tonight.
