    I think you are speaking from your heart....not your head.

    I think any of the other 6 teams could beat the winner here.

    both series are a 100% crapshoot. the only guaranteed losers here are the sponsors.


    detroit.
    texas.
    missouri.
    wisconsin.


    they're going to set all time ratings LOWS. especially from down northeast numbers where heavy duty Yankees and Phillies favorites suffered massively disappointing first round losses. the casual fans will be so turned off they wont watch another game.

    What a heart breaker. Let me take this moment to extend my deepest sympathies to the Fox Network.

    Time for ESPN to run stories on the 2012 Phillies championship run.

    I think the network execs at Fox just laid one in their pants...

    It's like shouting at a brick but maybe, just maybe, the MLB media will finally realize that major league baseball exists outside of the Northeast. To them Major League Baseball doesn't extend beyond the Yankees, Red Sox, Phillies, Nationals and Braves.

    What an awesome game! This is why I love baseball. Carpenter was unreal and there were some great defensive plays but Halladay pitched his heart out as well. 1-0 playoff games are pretty rare so this was quite a treat. So far this year's playoffs have been fantastic!!!

    Carpenter reminded me of Glavine in the '95 World Series 1-hitter. Unhittable. Lots of people can do it during the regular season, few can do it in the playoffs under the big lights. Great outing...

    they're actually going to to a "Consolation" series (which will be fixed of course to go seven games). image
