Craziness

Between adoption class and final preparation for our charity walk and little gathering, Christine and I had little time to sit and watch the games today. We missed two doozies.

The Red Sox outlasted the Yankees, 16-11. I finished cutting the grass just in time to see Mike Lowell's three-run home run in the 7th, which put the Red Sox up for good. This game looked like a painful one to watch.

We saw a little more of the Phillies' 6-4 10-inning win over the Marlins - the second straight night the Marlins took a lead into the top of the 9th but wound up losing to the champions.

Funny moment: Driving in the car, I was zoning out as I heard a home run call. Christine started laughing - it was Chan Ho Park.

Not-so-funny moment: Brad Lidge's 10th inning. He had three strikeouts. But he threw 34 pitches and loaded the bases.

Can we get a pair of sweeps tomorrow? If so, the Phils will be at .500 and the Red Sox will have run their winning streak to 10 and could be tied for first. In other words, the SoxandPhils 2009 World Series is back on!
