As my former boyfriend once explained to the very depressed players at a baseball tournament after they’d lost two out of the first three games, that’s really a wash and today was really only the first game of a five-game series.
So the Phillies are only down by one and that’s how they need to approach it.
I hear ya Susie. And that’s the way you’ve got to think about it…so keep your chin up. But I’m a Buckeye who recently moved to the SF Bay Area. My Bucks lost their number one ranking last weekend and now my Giants are up against the awesome/powerful/big time Phillies. I’m hanging by a thread here. So I say “You guys are down two. Might as well just quit.”
Childhood Phils fan, 42 year Giants fan. Either I’m hopelessly torn or I can’t lose. Such a dilemma!
Love your blog, Suze, can’t stand your Phillies. GO GIANTS!
