I don't remember who it was that opened a chat room for us to use during the March Madness last spring, but i'm wondering if we could do that again for the baseball games this month? I am developing an interest in baseball, especially since my 9-year-old is interested, and I"d like to hear what various people have to say about the games as they progress, and to ask questions. Besides y'all are fun to converse with, and I enjoyed a lot of the banter, too.

Thanks

Hmmm. There's got to be away to spell "y'all" in metric; just to get under Padgett's skin even more.

Sox up 10-3 in the 8th. Manny has 3 RBIs, including 2 bases loaded walks. It's only the second time ever in a postseason game that one player has walked twice with the bases loaded in the game. Tim McCarver tells us the other time was in Game 2 of the 1971 World Series when Jim Palmer did it.

Big Papi has another huge night and has reached base 17 times in 19 postseason plate appearances this October.

The game was downright boring -- the best kind of boring for Red Sox fans.

11 innings for the Rockies. Up 2-0 and heading back to Denver. First team since 1976 Reds to start 5-0 in the post season.

Manny and Lowell go back-to-back, but Trot does in his old team. I'm glad Trot can still play a bit; I just wish he'd gotten it out of his system in the Division Series.

Seven to go, and holding. . .

Kiss the Diamondbacks good bye.

BTW, is this another team that had been to the World Series before the Cubs?

Peace
