I know Desmond hing is but who else?  I am watching Game 4 now.  Seems like Phillies is kicking a$$.  Bottom of the 6th inning, they are leading the Rays 6-2.

Yes, Alex hing, obviously you are not following it.  Phillies won tonight and leading the series 3-1.  Game 5 tomorrow night.  If Phillies won tomorrow, they will be the 2008 world champion.

Hi David! Yes I know Phillies are now leading 3-1 in the series. It is really out of expectation for me since the Rays is my pick before the series started. They are young and very energetic, but they are also pretty unstable. watching this series I just cannot believe they were the same powerhouse hitting dingers at will in the ALCS. Anyway phillies is a good team and I like the middle infield tandem of Jimmy Rollins and Chase Utley a lot. And you have to give it to Jamie Moyer........he still has a starting pitcher job at age 45!
So far it's been a fun series. This is the 1st time I see 5 infielders. Lots of funny idea by Joe Maddon.

BTW, a special b-day cake for you :

Hi Desmond hing ~

Thanks very much for that baseball cake!!

Game 5 just started.  Are you watching it LIVE too?  Phillies should be able to wrap it up.  Hamels is good.  I don't think they want to travel back to TB.  I'd just checked the Las Vegas Sports Book, TB is the underdog going into this game. Cold in Philly though, only 7C!!

You are welcomed David!

No I am not watching the game since I am in the office. The best I can do is mlb.com gameday.

I feel the same way that the Phillies can wrap up the series at home. Kasmir's stuff is good but he is kind of shaky. Hamels really outpitched him in Game 1. People are talking about the farm system of the Rays but the one for Phillies are pretty good as well. Hamels, Howard, Utley, Rollins.......if they all represent the U.S. in the upcoming WBC it would be heck of a line-up.

I remember there was snow falling in the 2006 ALCS between the Tigers and A's @ Detroit. How's the weather in LV? I think we are again having a pretty warm summer in HK as this is the end of Oct but I am still wearing short-sleeved shirt

No game tonight. Game time is tomorrow night 8:37pm ET (HKT Thursday 8:37am).  But weather forecast says it might snow at game time with a wind chills of -5C!!!  This should be interesting!!

Doesn't it sound crazy? Mother nature doesn't want the series to end so soon........maybe we will see a game 7
