Baseball is the greatest game ever. Period.

Anyone else see Game 2 of the ALCS?

Holy shiztu, what a game. Talk about your back and forth momentum shifts. And the Rays won to top it off.

The ALCS is going 7 games this year. No doubt about it.

1. Yes...I think it goes 6 though.

TB has the biggest Home/Road split in the AL. My beloved sox had to take one of two from TB at home and did that. Last night just wold have been icing on the cake. Now if the sox can take 2 of 3 at home...I think we can win this series.

3. I caught the last 3 innings...

Wow. Neck in neck.

They are BOTH just phenomenal teams. And as a Phillies fan, I will fully admit that I am scared to death of both of them!!! :scared:

If we manage to pull off winning the NLCS, we will really have our hands full with whoever wins the ALCS.

I'm scared - SCARED, I say!!!!! :scared:

I just wish I had turned the TV off before the TBS MLB analysts decided to entertain us with their karaoke. Jeez. :eyes:

8. Yes, I did not need to hear retired baseball players try to sing.

It did permanent damage to my brain.

7. Not my favorite sport, but it's still great.

Last night's game was fantastic (says this Sox fan).

9. Missed it, watched Wisconsin get their butts kicked by Penn State last night

If the Twins were playing I would have of course watched it.

I hope to see a Philly-Tampa Bay WS.

10. Wow, sorry I missed it!

I did watch the first inning - incredible how many pitches it took to get out of the inning, and then to have it 2 - 2. Just wow. Sure wish I'd stayed with it.

I'm a (girl) baseball fan who watches each and every Yankees game (sorry!), all summer. Love it. Best entertainment with reruns on, and now that TV sucks in the Fall.
