[Guest SI Metman]

If only Anderson Hernandez didn't start his major league career 0/12...

[Guest getalife]

Mets delayed, Yanks delayed, Sawx delayed ... weather doesn't look par-
ticularly good for the next few days either.

[Zvon]

Ill be upset if this game is rained out.
Harry C says so will the Phils.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Love Harry Kalas. What a voice - he's a throwback to the olden days of radio announcers.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Let's cue up the 1974 highlight film.

Harry is one of the best.
No doubt.
He still talks so fondly about Richie Ashburn and you can tell he really, really misses him.

Voices like him and Bob Murphy will never be replaced.

[Zvon]

During the rain delay, CCsportsnet is showing a Darryl Strawberry interview/special.
He said early on he had "marriageaile" problems.
lol.

Actually this is a very interesting and honest look at the man.

[Zvon]

It doesnt look good right now.
Its pouring in Philly.


They really want to get tis game in though,....so we'll see.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

In theory, this system is supposed to blow out of here soon.

In the meantime, I'm watching Comedy Central. I'm catching the end of A Mighty Wind, and I'll watch The Daily Show rebroadcast from last week.

[metirish]

The Red Sox game is called , a double header tomorrow, Schilling will start the night game and then start the last game of the season, I'm listening to the FAN and when did Ed Coleman turn into such a prick,he's full of scorn for just about every caller,yeah I know most callers are asking for it but Ed fucking Coleman sounds like Francesa.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Turn it off.

[Guest cooby]

How will he know when the game starts?

[metirish]

I'll tell you Cooby, after fran gives the word

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

The Philly channel is showing the pitchers warming up and the players stretching out, etc.

[Zvon]

yea,...they say there will be a game.
The Phils are suckin the moisture off the field as I type.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

And we're off!

[Zvon]

I love hearin it fro Harry...
"...and with two outs that brings up the dangerous Cliff Floyd."


Cairo singled...Floyd HBP.

2 on, 2 out...
Wright at the plate

[metirish]

Is Harry now the voice of NFL Films?, sure sounds like him

[Guest cooby]

Dang, I would go to bed and listen to this on our local Phillies station, but I brought the stereo downstairs for the holidays last week

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Holy Hell - Rollins homers off the first pitch to extend his hitting streak to 31 games and to give the Phillies a 1-0 lead.

[Zvon]

OMG

Rollins with a lead off kaboom to break the Phil record hitting streak......wow.

105 yr record........wowwwwwwwwzers

Edit^: I guess he only tied that record.

[Zvon]

That cracked me up.


Jacobs knew very well he was off the bag on that. Ump didnt see him try the swipe tag, I guess. A break for the Mets.....but....

Utley smacks a standup double off the wall.

Hope the Mets brought their hittin sticks.

[Zvon]

Jacobs with a bead---

Burrell singles in another in the 1st, if not for a real nice play by Jacobs and a nice grab by Beltran it could have been worse.
Phils up:2-1

[Zvon]

I wasnt in front of the TV for that inning, but it says Rollins doubled (at Sportsline), and drove in Lieberthal.
So was that the hitting streak record?
Im fallin asleep here.

3-1 Phils

[Guest Edgy DC]

Two things I'm seeing way too much of this year

1) Shattered bats

2) Checked swings called for strike three.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Cliff is clubbing it foul.

Straighten it out, Cornelius.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Tying Ed Freaking Delahanty.

Wow.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Diaz caught leaving early.

By a righthander.

Bad.

[Frayed Knot]

Victor Diaz still has many, many rough edges that need smoothing before he's a bonafide everyday player.
