And I mentioned Greg because the article went on ad naseum about him, seeingly blaming him for not "correcting" Drake.

Bitter Philthies fan, Rich?

I'm not bitter at all. And such an original and cute twisting of their name, too! If I had a D battery I'd throw it in your direction.

The Phillies have been pretty quiet about the call, actually. Just cause big-mouth Bill Conlin writes a column doesn't mean the Phils have been whining about it. I read articles coming from the Philly press the day after and the first base coach thought it was foul, too, and signalled as much to the dugout. There was no argument on the field.

In all seriousness, the Mets ran away and hid this season. Good for the Mets. But if the Phillies make up the game on the Dodgers and win the Wild Card, they will be a more dangerous team in the playoffs. The Mets and Cardinals SHOULD be worried. They've lost so many games in the last few weeks you wonder if they will be able to turn it on again.
