Gee, thanks, Fox

plate discipline
the rays don’t look so comfortable agains Hamels… they’re swinging at everything =0
Wikipedia is accurate. (citation needed)
Evening, folks
Just got home – looks like Hamels is being as good as advertised. HUGE double-play to get out of that inning.
I have a piece of paper with "Rays" written on it
in blue crayon pinned to a baseball cap to show my support.
We will meet in Red 3 at the hour of scampering.
Let's hope
You don’t mean Ray Winstone, or he’ll want his cap back… [Sorry, was watching Love, Honour and Obey a couple of days ago, and so he’s the first Ray that sprang to mind…]

If Kazmir had hit Burrell
I bet he would’ve been called out for interference / running inside the base line.
No matter… next pitch, third out.
a pitch was miles outside and away
and was called for a strike to Hamel
We will meet in Red 3 at the hour of scampering.
Interesting game so far.
Little bit of offense, little bit of pitching, Kazmir taking 8,000 pitches to get through five innings. Probably about what we expected.
I like this new tradition
of having military singers sing in the 7th inning. It’s much more meaningful to them, and it’s much more likely that the person can actually sing well instead of trying to do too much to impress the audience.
Whatever happened to...

Lidge is perfect in save opportunities this year. (Well, the ASG doesn’t count.)

Their Upton didn't do too well

Game over
Phillies take the lead, but I can’t say this one was unexpected. The Rays should bounce back to level things tomorrow.
I'd like
to quote ESPN’s Jim Caple:
“I pick the Rays to sweep because the American League is that much superior to the National League, which once again got smoked in interleague play and the All-Star Game. It’s like the majors versus AAA.”
Twit.
We are gonna get drunk with Adam Dunn and we're gonna head-butt some damn kangaroos.
Uh-oh
I think Philadelphia might win the series. Why? Because according to Yahoo, the Rays have an edge in the “Intangibles” category. In every series this post-season, Yahoo has said that the team that would eventually lose had an edge in Intangibles.
Seriously, that’s an impressive streak.
"And a note to self that we must tread carefully if we wish not to give gratuitous offense, and even more carefully if we do wish to give it."
-Stephen Fry
Wait
So now they can measure the intangibles? But in the last series, that wasn’t measurable? Something is wrong with their statistics.
It's like living with a six-year old.

I think it's safe to say
That if you can quantify them, they aren’t intangibles.

Much better start!

And in other news
The SnakePitette is a-flutter today, having spent the day working as an extra on Middle Men, starring Luke Wilson and Giovanni Ribisi, currently filming around the valley. She got to stand next to Luke in one sceen, so she’s all ‘OMGWTFBBQ PONEEEEES!’ :-)
That's something you don't see every day
C. Utley flied into double play right to first, J. Werth out at first
Wow
Shields is pulling a nice Houdini act. RISP with one out in four of five innings, and he hasn’t given up any runs.
Of course, the fact that the Phillies are something like 1 for 23 with RISP so far this series helps.
"And a note to self that we must tread carefully if we wish not to give gratuitous offense, and even more carefully if we do wish to give it."
-Stephen Fry
James Shields leaves in the 6th...
Two runners on, Wheeler comes in to try to keep the Phillies off the board.
Make that 3
The Rays would love to get that run back here in the bottom of the 8th.

Garza’s given up a single, a walk, and a wild pitch to put runners on second and third with no outs. Yikes.

Thank you for the write-up, Jim!!
I’m so sorry to leave it like that for you :( but I was on my way home from practice when I realized I wouldn’t have the time before heading out to a birthday party. (My friend’s baby turned 1!)
Glad to see the game finally on and the Rays tie it up at 1.
No prob
Presumed you weren’t able to do it, with it being a Saturday ‘n’ all.
Greetings from the SnakePitette’s 21st birthday party: hey, they have wi-fi! She survived her early-morning skydiving intact, I am pleased to report. Just working on my second plate of Cuban pork and rice. And, er, my [mumble]th glass of sangria. :-)
I think this post-season may set a record for most games finishing after midnight, local time!

How about a home run here?

But I want to see some runs, guys! Come on!

The runs are nice
But, Tampa, look at what the Phillies are doing- scoring runs on groundouts aren’t really all that exciting, huh?
"And a note to self that we must tread carefully if we wish not to give gratuitous offense, and even more carefully if we do wish to give it."

All tied up
On a stolen base and a throwing error?

Walkoff
Phillies up 2-1 on the series now…
"And a note to self that we must tread carefully if we wish not to give gratuitous offense, and even more carefully if we do wish to give it."
-Stephen Fry
Not a good ninth for Tampa, really
1-2-3 in the top, and then a HBP, a wild pitch, and two intentional walks in the bottom? What’s up with that?
"And a note to self that we must tread carefully if we wish not to give gratuitous offense, and even more carefully if we do wish to give it."
-Stephen Fry
Well
that first inning was certainly an adventure. I don’t know whether Tampa Bay should be pissed for giving up a run or happy to have only given up one.
5-1!
Ryan Howard ain’t a playa he just crushes alot.
We are gonna get drunk with Adam Dunn and we're gonna head-butt some damn kangaroos.
Ouch
Not looking good for the Rays at the moment. They’ve been playing like a shadow of the team that crushed Chicago and out-lasted Boston.
Ooo
I hope the ump throws some Rays out.

Jim Caple sez they so much better?
We are gonna get drunk with Adam Dunn and we're gonna head-butt some damn kangaroos.
Oh yeah? Let's see what Wikipedia has to say about "Jim Caple"
Jim Caple is a columnist for ESPN.com whose stories routinely feature fake quotes from people in the sports and entertainment world.
Fake quotes? Can we trust a man like this with our future, and our children’s future? Not to mention the part of our future that overlaps with our children’s future- that part is extra important.
Fake quotes? If he can fake quotes, he might as well fake his whole name. Who are you really, “Jim Caple”? Or maybe you just don’t want us to find out.
Vote Kishi for, I don’t know, whatever it is Jim Caple does.

I went into this kinda rooting for the Rays, but as this gets more and more in the Phillies’ favor I find myself strangely okay with it.

Air was thin tonight
routine batting practice fly balls were carrying out of the park. That was reflected in the game.
P.S.

Proud supporter of Randy going for 300, even next year.
Nice base running there
Hmmm, it’s the World Series, think you might want to try to run out a little blooper? You know, just on the off chance that it gets bobbled? Nah, watch the ball and stop running. That’s big league.
Duh.
It's like living with a six-year old.
Not starting off well for the Rays
"And a note to self that we must tread carefully if we wish not to give gratuitous offense, and even more carefully if we do wish to give it."

Wow.
I definitely remembered Unit’s five wins in ’01, but I would never have guessed K-Rod in ’02 was the other person to accomplish that.
Aw, man
I’m sorry, but it’d just be lame if the deciding game in the World Series was called short because of rain.

I’d like a run from the Rays, and then they call the game and start it again later.

From the hit, I expected it to be a close play at the plate, especially given the condition of the dirt.

Wow
39 degrees and Upton basically surfs into second – his bow-wave got there perceptibly ahead of him. Game tied now, so I guess the Rays might be more inclined to settle for a delay at this point.
Delay

Makes sense
They really didn’t want to end the World Series on a rain-delay; has that ever happened before? This way, they’ll just finish the game off tomorrow, if necessary.
Bob DuPuy interviewed
They’d like to finish the game tonight, but they’re not optimistic, it may rain this poorly all night. It’s officially a suspended game, it would continue tomorrow or even Tuesday. I wonder how that would work.

On the other hand, is it really that different than taking a samurai flick and changing it into a western?
"And a note to self that we must tread carefully if we wish not to give gratuitous offense, and even more carefully if we do wish to give it."
-Stephen Fry
I guess it depends
It just seems that so much of what made Lock, Stock or Basic Instinct successful [and, indeed, fun] would not translate too well to the Hindi culture. Samurai films and westerns are more or less the same, just with swords instead of guns [gross simplification, but you see my point] I mean, they can’t even show people kissing on screen, so that’s all the two most memorable scenes of Basic Instinct right out the window.

To no great surprise
This is proving a viewing disaster for Fox. Despite its closeness, Game Three was “the lowest-rated in the history of television, by a comfy margin. The game averaged 6.1 percent of U.S. households, beating the previous low of 8.0 for Game 1 in 2006.”
Game Five Finale Postponed
Again, until Wednesday at the earliest. Weren’t they supposed to be playing in Tampa on Wednesday?
I was glad, at least, to see that Bud wasn’t going to let the Series end on a shortened game. I’ll put that in my (scant) file of “Things Bud Selig has done that I’ve been in favor of.” Okay, my scant file of “Things Bud Selig has done that I’ve been in favor of, and acknowledge.”
Also, memo to Jeff Passan: What, first the Rays didn’t have enough fans, and now the fans they have aren’t good enough? Shut the hell up. I’m tired of hearing about what fans should and shouldn’t be doing to support their team, or how not enough fans are showing up. You know what? The fans who are there are there because they love the team and the game. The fans who aren’t there? Aren’t reading your articles, jackass. So the fans have cowbells, so what? Gasp, shock and horror at the mohawks. They’re %#@&ing enjoying themselves, so why not let them? Don’t give me more of this “Tampa doesn’t deserve this” BS, because it doesn’t matter- they’ve got it, and you just need to deal with it and move on. Instead, Tampa doesn’t deserve this BS from you and every other columnist out there.

People whine
about Arizona fans just as much (and sometimes even here) but I agree completely. There’s no point in putting your own expectations on other fanbases, so let them have fun.

Jeff Passan's article
What bothers me is the elite attitude about the fans and the stadium, even the city. Come on, it’s a game, people are having a great time watching it and getting involved with the players. Cowbells? Fun! Rally Monkeys? Fun! Sure they can get annoying but it’s all in good fun. Get over your holier than thou attitude.

Phillies take the lead again
4-3 now, in the bottom of the seventh, after a nice play ended the seventh and stopped the Rays from scoring. It’s getting closer…
Uh-oh

Ah, well.

Of course
Since they didn’t beat the Yankees or the Red Sox, we’ll probably still have to hear the same “the NL is a weaker league” spiel next season.

and what about Hamels + Lidge
5 wins and 6 saves this postseason… nice stuff…
Wikipedia is accurate. (citation needed)
Does Hamels get the win?
I suspect not, since the Rays tied it up again in the seventh, after he left the game.

For the win. :-) So, F-Rod and Randy remain the only pitchers with five post-season wins in the same series.
by Jim McLennan on Oct 29, 2008 11:00 PM EDT up reply actions
The cool thing would've been, though
that all 5 of Hamels’ wins would’ve been starts, and he’d have been the only pitcher to do that. Too bad, that would’ve been really neat.
