What a game! If you are any kind of baseball fan tonight's game to determine the National league playoff team was one for the ages. 13 innings of excitement. Top of the 13th the Rockies bring in Jorge Julio. Not a good sign if you are a Rockies fan. Julio sucks to put it bluntly. He can't find the strike zone and walks the first batter and then gives up a two run homerun to put the Padres up by 2. The next batter singled and Julio is finally removed with no more runs scoring. Bottom of the 13th. The Padres have Trevor Hoffman pitching. Only the man with the most saves ever in baseball history. First batter---double. Second batter--double. Score now 8-7. Next batter triple! Score now tied. Next batter fly ball to right caught by the Giles--the throw to the plate...not in time according to the home plate umpire Tim McClelland. Replays seem to show that Michael Barrett did block the plate. Still, the umpire said safe so the Rockies are in and the Padres go home. What a game!!! If you are any kind of baseball fan it was one to remember...

Go Tribe!!!
I'm a die-hard Padres fan and I was rooting for the Rockies. The Padres stumbled and bumbled their way into the playoffs and totally deserved to lose.

Tribe is going to need to play better than this... And RIGHT after I typed that the Tribe has a 7 run 11th inning. Repairman Jack, are you watching this? Are you awake? It's 1:30 your time. There is some advantages of living on the West Coast. Stubedoo

Unfortunately no on the tickets. It was a lottery. I work tomorrow night so that was out. I did not bother to get in the lottery. I know that was lame of me. I will be watching at home though!
