This game is supposed to get back under way at 8:37, just after Barack Obama's half-hour national ad. The Phillies lead the series 3-1. There's still the possibility of the game being postponed again -- by rain or by snow.

you gotta be kidding

The game is delayed for a half-hour political ad?!

Arrrrrghhhh.

If I weren’t already boycotting Obama for that dopey bailout for billionaires (that didn’t work, mind, unless “making Paulson’s friends even richer” counts), this would do it.

And I thought Bush was bad, for trading Sammy Sosa…

they didn't delay the game

the just preempted the pre-game show. Thanks for making a political issue out of it, though.

What do you mean, "blank slate"?

youre probably right

but i dont think either of them could have caught that ball and thrown out the runner. Upton would have had to dive if he would have been close enough, and that is a big if. tough play for anyone.

Reds interested in Mulder?

From Fay:

The Reds will at least explore signing left-hander Mark Mulder, whose option was turned by the Cardinals last week. “I’ve got to see what the medical situation is,” Jocketty said. “I traded for him and re-signed him. I obviously liked him.”

I thought the Rays would be energized by the delay

seeing as how they scored to pretty much save their lives. However, it looks like the Phillies are the ones who have momentum on their side. Of course, playing at home helps.

crap, I'm about to head out

in a campus full of NJ/Philly area fans.

I may be in the news tomorrow for going on a William Wallace-esque spree of destruction. I hate this campus. Especially when the bad guys (phils, pats, giants, jets, redskins) win. Nothing brings out stupid aggression towards The Other like drunk sports fans.

I missed the play. Amazingly it’s not up on MLB.com either, as far as I can tell.

Speaking of mancrushes

What Joe Maddon said in the postgame conference, about how a mind, once stretched, cannot return to its former shape…

What a great comment on how far the Rays have come, and where they’re going to go from here. I want Joe Maddon to be my manager. Bald spot be damned, I think I’m getting a mohawk.

Yeah

I listen to Maddon and get all warm and tingly inside. Then I remember we have His Dudeness running the Reds and a little more of my soul withers on the vine.

Milledge unveiled the Nats' new uniforms yesterday at the ESPN Zone in DC

Along with Manny Acta and four comely lasses. The red alternate jersey looks suspiciously similar to our red alternate jersey, and the plot to turn the Nats into the Midatlantic Reds thickens…
