| Phillies-Brewers playing one heckuva game tonight. |
|
Baseball at its best, IMHO.
It's 2-2 in the bottom of the ninth.
That's why I love baseball.

| 2. Dang. The Mariners are sticking with the Nats 3-3, too. |
|
Who woulda thunk it?
Actually, the M's have won 8 out of 11, apparently. Shiggy looks shaky on the mound in the eigth, however.

| 4. At least they're competitive. |
|
And there is actually hope for the future with the new owner. Miller's a nice ballpark, and, even though I don't get back there often, it would be nice for the town to be able to get excited for once.

| 6. Wow! This is why I never post about such things. |
|
Shiggy did blow it. Nats up 6-3 now. Spivey actually pinch hit, got a walk and a run.

| 5. David Bell hits a three-run, walk-off homer for the Phillies. |
|
Another reminder of a stupid move by the Mariners: Dumping Bell for Jeff Cirillo.
Great game!

| 7. Bell did come thru tonite but.... |
|
Offensively, he has been a real disappointment this year. Its just getting hidden by the fact that the rest of their lineup (minus Thome) has been kickin ass lately!
But it was a great game. As was last nights Phils-Rangers game. They raised ober $150k for charity last night with their 7 homeruns. The Phillies have made me a fan of baseball again.
Go Phils

| 8. Well, even this year, I suspect, he's doing better than Cirillo did... |

in Seattle. And Cirillo got bags of money for his non-performance.

He was a key player when the M's won 116 in 2001. Clutch hitter that year, with decent D. The M's went and spent a ton of money on Cirillo, who never did squat, got hurt all the time, etc... etc... The fans in Seattle have never forgiven management for that.
He's not a great one, but he's usually done his job well, IMHO.
Salud!
