Home Stretch
September 27th, 2007There is some great baseball being played at this time of the year. The playoff race in the National League is going to go down to the final weekend. The Phillies are putting the heat on the Mets for first place in the East. They’re just one game in back as of tonight. They are also just one game behind the Padres for the wild card and tied with the Rockies. I don’t remember this much hope for a Phillies team in a long time. I don’t particuarly care for Charlie Manuel’s style of managing but with the pitching he has it’s a miracle they are this close. This club just will not quit. He should be considered for manager of the year. I don’t know how this will play out but it sure has been exciting to be a fan this year.
