Phillies 2-1 after a nail bitter.


Well we are in Philly now and it seems to have paid off! The Phillies managed a win last night...I mean this morning. They got it done in the bottom of the 9th with the bases loaded with no outs. Personally I think it there shouldn't of been a bottom of the 9th. The umps have been horrible thus far. Moyer's had an AWESOME play, scoping up an Upton first base line tap and shoveling it to Howard's bare hand for an out. Yet the first base ump seemed to think he was safe. A simple instant replay would of shown the true and we could move on everyone happy, but no. Upton went on to steal second, then third with Ruiz bouncing the ball off him letting him come home to tie the game. All of the Rays runs were unearned semi Phillies defensive mishaps. Ohwell...we pulled out the win at 1:45am Sunday morning.

Tonights game is following the Eagles which basiclly shares a parking lot with Citizens Bank Park. So it's going to be crazy down there! We are still on the hunt for tickets. My Uncle George has his already, season tickets. But I feel pretty good about finding some, we are working a few angles. We are heading down to the stadium (by train) around 4, right after the Eagles game. George, his pal and Beth are meeting us at gmoms house to head down.

Wish us luck! More to come.
