****OFFICIAL WORLD SERIES THREAD****

[PCIntern]

Could be a great night for my Phillies!

[SalmonChantedEvening]

1. Quick top of the 1st :)

:hi:

What was that, 8 pitches tops?

[PCIntern]

2. Maybe 6...

[SalmonChantedEvening]

7. 2-0 after one!

Full-twisting ^5!

[DS1]

3. Go team!

:D


/totally indifferent, but it's nice to see some fresh faces in the WS

[mcctatas]

4. Is that on already?

who knew :shrug:

Happy viewing :toast:

[PCIntern]

5. 60 pitch inning for Rays?

[flvegan]

6. Do the Phillies know the Rays were hustling them?

We let you win those games. Now...it's GO time.

Or something.

[Beaverhausen]

8. Go Phillies

I gotta get home and watch the game, dang it!

[Patiod]

9. YOUR Phillies?

Our Phillies.

[PCIntern]

10. OK....sorry.

:hi:

[Patiod]

11. God, it's fun to actually feel like we have a chance, huh?

It's a tough adjustment both as a Philadelphian and a Democrat.

I'm so used to having it snatched away....

The mind reels
:crazy:

[PCIntern]

12. Doubleheader...

[Patiod]

19. Sweet

:)

[Sugarcoated]

13. It's raining pretty hard

Is it possible they'll stop the game?

[BeachBaby]

15. I would think they would....

it's getting pretty bad out there, and it's only going to get worse.

Then again....look at the stadium - none of the fans are leaving! They want this BAD!!!!

:woohoo:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

17. Man the life rafts!!

JGD!! :hi: :hug: GO PHILLIES!

[BeachBaby]

22. And now they're trying to level the mudslides.

LOL! Hiya sweetie! :hi: :loveya:

GO PHILS!!!!!!!!!!! We want a parade on Broad Street on Wednesday!!!! :party: :woohoo:

[Oeditpus Rex]

23. Puddledelphia

:D

[Sugarcoated]

24. Very cute, LOL

:D That made me chuckle

[Patiod]

20. How bizarre - they can't stop it, can they?

If it were an earlier game, maybe, but they can't have someone wrap up the entire series on a called game. So they're sort of stuck.

[BeachBaby]

25. They just did.

This is gonna be a long night.

[Texasgal]

14. GO PHILLIES!!!

:)

[charlie and algernon]

16. holy shit, WHAT. A. PLAY.

might be the play of the series.

[Sugarcoated]

18. That was pretty

Now he just needs to start hitting

[pinniped]

21. They got so many free bases and still couldn't capitalize.

I see Feliz still likes to hack at balls way out of the strike zone.

[flvegan]

26. For the record: I called it.

Wait for the Rays to tie the game, then suspend.

That's fair. Props to MLB.

[BeachBaby]

27. Did you see Upton?

He was standing at first, gabbing with Ryan....and he stuck his hands under his belt, into his pants to keep them warm.

They had to call it - they couldn't see shit, the wind, rain and cold was too much for them, and destroying the field.

Ditto on MLB props.

[Sugarcoated]

28. They'll have to resume in Philly

[flvegan]

31. Which is fair.

I say, finish the game as it was meant to be. Can't have the Series "called".

[MrSlayer]

29. Leaving runners stranded is going to cost us this fucking game.

God damn it! I can't express just how pissed off I am.

[KitchenWitch]

30. I, for one, am glad to see that the Rays tied it up and they suspended the game

I am rooting for the Phillies, but I did not want to see them win a called game.

[Sugarcoated]

32. My husband was totally pissed but I'm agreeing with you

It wouldn't feel right.

[flvegan]

33. Would have been an unkind asterisk

that, though I'm rooting for the Rays, I'd not want the Phils to have to wear.

[MrSlayer]

37. Heh, I'll take it any way I can get it.

100 seasons without a championship, I'm not picky how it comes.

[dancingme]

34. I say they resume it tomorrow at noon

all the people who will be up all night will be ten times louder than they were tonight!

[BeachBaby]

35. Game suspended until 8pm tomorrow night.

UGH. Ugh Ugh Ugh.

My nerves are shot.

[MrSlayer]

36. It's supposed to rain tomorrow too.

We're probably looking at wednesday to resume. Nothing is ever easy for us.

[BeachBaby]

38. Yeah, well the fans have shown their disgust, apparently....

the police have already arrested 45 people in the streets. :eyes:

You're right, though....to clarify, they said *at the earliest* 8pm tomorrow night.

And the police commissioner is very concerned about the possibility of having to take the series into Thursday and Friday - mischief night and Halloween night. Mayhem at its finest. :scared:

[mvd]

39. They should do everything they can to play tomorrow

It will be windy and cold but maybe not rain all day - don't count on Bolaris. :-)

I wouldn't have wanted the championship from a shortened game, either. No players celebrating or crowd going wild.

[Initech]

40. Commissioner Jackass is on ESPN right now giving his explanation of the game.

Man, this is a really interesting turn of events! :popcorn:
