Phillies in need of rain to delay game
Posted by tom | Jun 13, 2009I haven't watched baseball for awhile, but tonight I turned on the Phillies-Red Sox game to watch with Grandpa Ginder (i.e., Ralph). Hard to believe the first half of the first inning. The Red Sox looked really good with a 5-0 lead stemming from the Phillies giving up walks, errors, runs, and home runs.
It was a relief that the rain brought the tarp on the field after the first inning. The game started back up over an hour later, but it's too late for me to tune in again. A quick glance shows that it's more competitive, well maybe I should take that back as the Red Sox score again. I'm interested in how it turns out and whether it's indicative of who is on top of baseball in 2009 as I doubt the Mets-Yankees series is. How about the drop on Friday night? Well maybe I already have my answer, except that I don't keep track of the Los Angeles teams and Tampa Bay seems to be able to beat the Boston.
PS. It's starting to rain here as I sign-off. I'm happy to have brought in the towels and the blanket.
