Now Playing: All over the Delaware Valley
Topic: Baseball
Middle of September and temperatures still in the 90s - in baseball it's called "Hittin' weather". Pardon me if I'm breathless and incredulous over the weekend events at Citizens Bank Park, across the Delaware river from where Liddy and I live in South Jersey. We were there on a hot Sunday afternoon in section 318 when the Phillies thumped the Milwaukee Brewer's 7-3 to move within 1 game of the National League wild card lead. Then we watched the second game of the doubleheader on TV as the Phillies completed a four-game sweep to tie for the lead with 12 games left in the season. That's why I'm breathless and incredulous in spite of the long-time Phillies mantra attributed to Tug McGraw,I believe - "You gotta believe". So there it is - we do believe, but credulous was not in the mood list.
Tomorrow after I catch my breath, I will get back to China.
