What could be better then being at the best Philly bar in LA, witnessing the Phils put an end to the crummy LA Dodgers , screaming with a shit-ton of Phillies fans, parading down Wilshire blvd as if it was Broad street?!?! Well I guess it would have to be chillin’ at my home with my family (4 week older daughter sportin’ her Phillies bib of course) and watching Our Boys in Red walk all over the even crummier New York Yankees! I think there was no better way of responding to the New York Post’ Victorino in a Dress cover story, then by doing what the Phils do best: Playing Great Baseball. The kind of great baseball that shuts down the millionaire sluggers and silences the Bronx Zoo.
One thing we’ve learned for sure so far during this post season, is that grabbing Mr. Cliff Lee was one of the smartest moves the Phillies Club did this season. He not only pitched a great first game, he made it look easy. Let’s not forget to mention the pure joy that reigned over every Philly Fan watching Mr. Utley smash not one, but two beautiful homers which could have stood alone and still won the game for the Phils. The Red Crew had a mission tonight, they needed to get the best of CC Sabathia and start tearing through the Yankee bullpen. Mission Accomplished. (And we ain’t talkin no George Bush ‘Mission Accomplished’). So bring on Game 2! My PhillyGirlinLA and I are lucky enough to have family in town to watch our Tiny-Philly Fan, so we will be travelin’ on down to The Shack in Santa Monica to watch Mr. Martinez take the mound. In the past Martinez has struggled in the Bronx and there’s no doubt the NY fans will be breaking his balls like they never broke those balls before; but this is not the past. Martinez locked in and took full charge of the Dodgers in Game 2(which I believe if they would’ve left him in for the 8th inning the Phils would have been celebrating an LA sweep). I guarantee he does it again, he’s taken heat in NY before, he can handle it... and he will handle those Damn Yankees. Ya gotta Believe.
So let’s go get ‘em Philly. The only thing I ask from my beloved Philadelphia Press is to not retaliate to the New York Post with some ridiculous front page Photoshop garbage...all that showed is that the New York Post is about one smut story away from being the National Inquirer. -PBILA
