   I’m glad we have the Ashburn award image fixed! i’m glad we have a chance to see what some of these young guys can do, especially Golson and Marson.

   POST SEASON 2008!!!! LET’S GO PHILS!!!!!

   Anyone know the schedule yet for the postseason? Thus far, since the teams haven’t been established, MLB.com doesnt have dates and times up yet. I know the Phils have a game Wednesday, but do we know what time? I’m on the west coast and missed every single game last year in the playoffs because they had the day game while I was working.

   There are dates but no times yet since teams are decided. The tenitive schedule is on mlb.com

   Seeing Taguchi smack that double brings back some fond memories of 2007.

   These people at shea at jacked up for this game

   two easy innings for Kendrick so far. i guess without the pressure he can actually put together a decent start. hopefully working in the instructional league can improve his command and arsenal of pitches because i think he has the ability to be a much better pitcher than he’s been this year.

7. SJ Mike Says:

   Shea’s pretty confident, Rob?

8. SJ Mike Says:
   September 28th, 2008 at 1:59 pm

   Got to hand it to Kendrick. After reading all of his quotes and everything, he seems determined to be a mainstay next year.

   There goes the KK no-hit bid

10. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 2:06 pm

    well, at least he was good for 2 innings

11. Rob Cowie Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 2:07 pm

    I’m glad kendrick is in mid-season form

12. Rob Cowie Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 2:08 pm

    It is, they are hanging on every pitch. It reminds me of last years clincher where the phils needed a win and a loss to make it.

    And the second-coming of Lieberthal has arrived… Congrats to Lou

14. SJ Mike Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 2:43 pm

    It’s interesting seeing our backups get clutch hits like this.

    Congrats to Marson on his first hit.

15. Joe Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 2:44 pm

    for the benefit of those of us watching the game on MLB Gameday, what is the injury delay following the Bruntlett double scoring Taguchi?

16. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 2:46 pm

    wow Taguchi actually did something! amazing.

17. SJ Mike Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 2:47 pm

    Nats pitcher Perez taken out of the game. They didn’t say what was wrong, but he was getting hit so Acta took him out.

18. grrrumpy miner Says:

    Actually have the Cubs/Brewers choking on hot mustard and very hot mustard cherry peppers rooting on the Damn Cubs.Mets still scoreless and i’ll give my wright eye for at least tomorrow.I hope there is a champagne bath today along with the Mets greatest of all time.I hope Seaver,Strawberry,Koozman and Even Yogi and the Say Hey Kid Willie Mays can partake too,and show them how to really celebrate

19. grrrumpy miner Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:01 pm

    GO OLLIE GO! No score bot. 5th

20. NEPA Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:13 pm

    Well, Golson strikes out a lot I guess.

21. SJ Mike Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:14 pm

    I think that’s his drawback. Golson is fast, he is supposed to be great defensively, but his bat may not be good with major league pitching.

    Florida took lead 1-0.

22. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:15 pm

    woah, they’re bringing in the big man! any bets? will it be #49 or #200?

23. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:16 pm

    haha ok, a base hit is nice too!

24. SJ Mike Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:17 pm

    They’re having a lot of fun today. I like it.

25. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:18 pm

    TAGUCHI! it’s a shame he hasn’t hit like this all season.

26. SJ Mike Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:19 pm

    Wouldn’t it be hilarious if Taguchi ends the game with a cycle?

27. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:20 pm

    i’d love it!

28. Rob Cowie Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:23 pm

    Bases loaded walk

29. Zack Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:23 pm

    Marlins have the bases loaded, 1 out, on the Mets, check it out on TBS!!! Come on Fish!!! The announcer actually said, “Here comes Joe Smith to bail out the Mets…” HA HA HA HA HA…

30. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:24 pm

    2-0 Florida! Go Fish!

    part of me hopes that both the brewers and mets tie up today and play again tomorrow. the more tired they both are, the better!

31. SJ Mike Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:24 pm

    Holy crap, we do get the Mets/Marlins game on TBS! I’ve been watching on GameDay!

32. SJ Mike Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:25 pm

    I am not looking forward to TBS announcers for the postseason.

33. Chase Mutley Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:38 pm

    I dunno CT, the Rockies were “tired” last year and mopped up the field with us. The high of winning a win-and-in playoff game has to give you some fierce motivation.

34. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:39 pm

    Marlins and Mets are 2-2 now

35. grrrumpy miner Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:44 pm

    LIFE! Beltran Bomb! 2-2 Bot 6th.Go Cubs Go!

36. Tim Malcolm Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:51 pm

    Boy, it would be great for the C-team to get the sweep and the 92nd win. Who closes? Let’s go with Condrey — a save would be a really cool gift to a guy who has clearly out-pitched his “long-man” status this season.

37. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:52 pm

    sure hope golson can get a hit here. or show some patience and get a walk.

38. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:52 pm

    haha well his speed helped him get on base there!

39. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:54 pm

    NICE FIRST HOMER FOR MARSON!

40. NEPA Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:54 pm

    Wow, Congrats to Marson.

41. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:55 pm

    HAHAHAHA NICE STAIRS! THE HIT PARADE CONTINUES!

42. grrrumpy miner Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:55 pm

    GREEN WITH ENDY! Looks great so far. 2-2 Bot 7th.

43. Tim Malcolm Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:55 pm

    Congratulations Lou! And Stairs! Hey-oh!

44. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:56 pm

    Taguchi’s a hitting monster today

45. Geoff Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:57 pm

    what a great debut by lou marson

46. Tim Malcolm Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:59 pm

    Wow. If that ain’t a fine first impression on the city, I don’t know what is.

47. NJ Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:59 pm

    it’s amazing how some players respond when the fans don’t boo thier presence in the line-up…

48. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 3:59 pm

    Milwaukee just tied it up, 1-1

49. Tim Malcolm Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:00 pm

    Mets and Brewers both tied in the seventh in very good games. Great stuff.

50. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:02 pm

    is the crowd chanting “let’s go Marlins?” haha

51. Eli Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:03 pm

    great job marson.

52. Zack Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:08 pm

    Wes Helms against Schowenweis, come on Wes, help us out here!!! The Phils are still paying you, remember that!

53. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:09 pm

    GREAT SEASON GUYS!!!

54. CT Says:

55. Chase Mutley Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:10 pm

    Home Run Wes Helms!!!

    Makes up for all the times you didn’t come through in the clutch for the Phillies.

56. Zack Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:12 pm

59. NEPA Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:15 pm

    Wow, Mets bullpen blowing it again. Anyone that thinks that team can win a playoff series is crazy I think.

60. Tim Malcolm Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:17 pm

    Milwaukee up 3-1. Wow.

61. Chase Mutley Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:17 pm

    Bring on the Brewers! Lets do this!

62. CT Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:21 pm

    i like our chances against the Brewers… let’s sweep em again!

63. NJ Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:21 pm

64. Craig Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:21 pm

    The Marlins will be WS winners in the next few years.

65. Chase Mutley Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:27 pm

    Brewers win.

66. Craig Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:30 pm

    Brewers win. At worst there’s gonna be a decider tomorrow with the Mets.

67. Craig Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:31 pm

    I wonder if Johan and CC will be wheeled out tomorrow night?

68. SJ Mike Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:32 pm

    Delgado had the chance to make or break and he broke.

    3 more outs and we face the Brew Crew.

72. AC in NJ Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:46 pm

73. Craig Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:50 pm

    The Mets were 3 1/2 games up with 17 to go and the Phillies win the league by 3 games.

    :O)

74. Craig Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:55 pm

    Mets down to their final out….woooooooooo

75. grrrumpy miner Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 4:58 pm

    Welcome to the bitter end.No finger pointing today…….THATS Tomorrow.However its a day of mourning for me not only for this season that never was,but the last time we’ll ever see the old girl Shea Stadium.I hate the Fn Marlins.Shea will live forever.

76. AC in NJ Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 5:03 pm

    Miner – I hate the Mets!!! The next best thing to the Phils NL East Championship is watching the Mutts go home. Enjoy the winter.

77. grrrumpy miner Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 5:05 pm

    AC…….I spoke of class and courtesy in this room.I can see you actually have none.Good luck vs the Dodgers.

78. Tim Malcolm Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 5:08 pm

    Hey miner, just to put it out there, you’re the classiest of rival fans. Thanks for your continued readership and contributions. I hope you keep coming back.

79. SJ Mike Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 5:09 pm

    Miner, you and I have had good convos on here. Tim is right, you are one of the classier ones.

    I’ll repeat a post I made on another thread for you.

    I do sincerely feel sympathy for the Mets and Shea from the standpoint of how their stadium is ending. Similar to how we closed the Vet with the Eagles and Phils. Eagles losing that NFC Championship game the way they did to the Bucs and the Phils getting eliminated several days before the the ending of the Vet.

    I know there are a lot who wouldn’t agree with me on that one.

80. grrrumpy miner Says:
    September 28th, 2008 at 5:16 pm

    Tim and SJ….I will still lurk around here. during the winter and 2009.It comes as an honor,ESP from Tim to have read what I have read,Thanx.Plus SJ……Thanx for the condolonces and good words but don’t feel sorry,Mets didn’t deserve the playoffs….end of 2008 Mets,end of story.
