In other words, NL baseball ROOLZ!!!!!
Not that I am exactly a Brett Myers fan, but the guy has provided more excitement and runs at the plate than he has with his pitching.
I enjoyed his 9 and 10 pitch ABs vs Cy Young wannabe Sabathia more than ANY hitting display. And today he created 1 more run than Manny. Myers went 3 fer 3, drove in 4 (got credit for only 3 because of an error) scored 2 and stranded none.
Manny wannaBMannyVP went 1 fer 4 with a BB, drove in 3, scored 1 and stranded 2.
This is simply the KEWLest. And it is why, in spite of the AL spending incredibly more money and all the Boston/NY media people going on and on and on about how much more better the AL is, NL ball is STILL better.
And Brad Lidge struck out the side, walking Manny and Loney. And the slider slid just great. Yeh, I’d enjoy Loney and the Dodgers making it to the Series, but you know, I think I’m enjoying watching Brad Lidge prove all the haters wrong.
And Go RAYS!!!!!
I have to admit, I get a bit choked up seeing Lidge walk out the door, to thousands of loving fans. I get a bit steamy-eyed with nostalgia to the fall of 2005. Good for him, but he’s definitely making those Phillie fans sweat, alot.

better to walk manny with the game on the line…
but in the playoffs so far he’s been totally 2004
“And Brad Lidge struck out the side, walking Manny and Loney.”
Great strategy.
A men among boys once again. (Sorry, Lisa!)
