Sorry if you were watching this afternoon’s NLCS game and felt an overwhelming need to chat – I just wasn’t around to be able to get anything up. Here’s your scoreboard update though:
1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | R | H | E | |
Philadelphia | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 0 |
San Francisco | 0 | 0 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | x | 3 | 5 | 0 |
As for tonight’s game, here’s the info you want. I won’t be around for the chat but at least it will be open available for those who are starting to really get caught up in a great series. I LOVED seeing the Rangers take it to the Yankees last night. Now they are ahead 2-1 and the Yankees are behind the 8 ball at home. Of course, they seem to respond fairly strongly to that situation as a rule so I sense we’ll see some real fight from the NY boys tonight. Gut instinct tells me that this will have a LOT more scoring for both teams than last night… we’ll have to see how this goes.

*giggling uncontrollably*
That was fun to watch the end of – kind of wish I had seen more of the game. Now that the Rangers are up 3-1 and have taken 2 from the Yankees on their home grass with a chance to end the entire series tomorrow, I think we have all learned one very important lesson: Nick Swisher shouldn’t play 1B. But if he does, you should watch because it’s hilarious. If someone ever gives him that opportunity again (unlikely) he should be required to wear a red nose and a wig when he goes out there. And for the record, yeah, Hamilton really does know how to swing a bat – along with several other members of his team. Nice.
Not sure whether we are going to be able to get a gamechat up for tomorrow afternoon’s game but if I can, I will because I gotta tell you that I am going to be trying to catch any part of the game I can. Go Rangers.
