Phillies win the World Series....




The Philadelphia Phillies won the World Series, defeating the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 5 at Philadelphia's Citizens Bank Park. It was the first suspended game ever played in World Series history.

After a rain delay in the middle of the sixth inning on Monday night, the game was completed two days later, a three-and-a-half-inning sprint with everything on the line.

The very first "professional" baseball game I ever went to as a kid was the Eugene Emeralds, who were at the time a farm club of the Phillies. Larry Bowa was on that team.

Do you remember your "first"?

Also, I would like to point out the Phillies play OUTDOORS, as God intended.

Enough said......
