No prob i don't follow baseball anymore A Tampa vs Philly series isn't as appealing as say an Angels vs Dodgers series also this game to me looks to be a trap, I think tampa will close it tonight if they let the redsox stay in it they could suffer the same fate as the Angels in 1986. That's when i quit being a baseball fan that sucked one out away and blew it.........here's a little article from a book about it the losing pitcher commited suicide

The 1986 baseball playoffs and World Series have been called the most exciting ever. Here Sowell (The Pitch That Killed) looks back at the triumphs and tragedies that followed that fateful post-season. In the Boston-California playoffs we see California manager Gene Mauch?"the greatest manager never to win a pennant"?one out away from victory, and still managing to lose. Donnie Moore?the relief pitcher who bore the brunt of the loss?was so depressed by the outcome that he killed himself............
