I'm sure Major League Baseball is patting themselves on the back for how smoothly and efficiently they handled the rain delay last night. I should just mention that, while they clearly have more important things on their minds than the people who are actually attending the game (we're not watching TV so we don't help ratings), it would have been nice to have a bit of information for the first hour of the delay. Especially when it didn't rain for 20 minutes and they didn't unroll the tarp. Finally after an hour they announced a start time. They pulled the same crap last year during the last game of the Series. Never said a darned thing to us.
If I don't get "swined," as the kids say, from the subway ride I don't know when it'll happen.
As hard a some people tried, there just isn't the same level of hatred for A-Rod as there was for Manny.
They quietly raised the price of a beer by a buck between the LCS and series. And do people really like Campo's cheesesteaks? Ugh. Back to the grilled cheese stand for me tonight.
I have a 95 year-old uncle in California who's been a Yankee fan since Babe Ruth. I'm collecting stuff to send him. Wish he could be here.
I just found a program for the 1980 LCS and a ticket stub from the 1993 Series. I don't want to lose sight of how amazing it is to be going to the World Series here 2 years in a row. The Yankees are a great team and there's no shame in losing to them. If the Phillies are going to lose I'd almost prefer it be here so I can give them a standing ovation for their season.
