So I'm not going to be able to see any more baseball this year. :(
I am away on business for the rest of the week and I will be going to bed in a few minutes, so won’t see any of tonight’s game.
This makes me sad. Roll on next April.
I was at Shea for the Felix-Slam!
Personal M's record: 5-4.

Acceptable outcomes for this game:
Phillies come from behind in the later innings and win on a walkoff
or
Rays win in close game and send it back to Tampa Bay.

They had an O/U on Jordin Sparks on the SB
it’s actually pretty easy. She was O/U 1:42. so some enterprising folks YouTubed all her previous performances and found that she had never gone under 1:55, and everyone made money

Gameday tends to be ahead of most of the cameras too.
Makes for an interesting experience.

2. See play on gameday.
3. Watch play actually unfold on hot corner.
4. Wish for DVR rewind capability.
5. Post very late on LL.

Ahaha from Jason Stark
If this game can’t be resumed — and at this point, that’s actually the most likely scenario — it’s expected that it would be scheduled to resume Tuesday night. But MLB’s COO Bob DuPuy told Fox that because the forecast for Tuesday was equally horrendous, it’s possible it might not be possible to finish this game until Wednesday.
Asked what the chances were of finishing the game Monday night, DuPuy replied: "Right now, we’re not optimistic."
If this situation had arisen in any World Series game before 2007, baseball wouldn’t have had the option to suspend the game. Under the old rules, it would have been declared a tie and started over from the first inning. But a 2007 rule change required that, once games become official, all tie games would be suspended and resumed at a later time from the point at which they’re stopped.
And now for yet another complication: The Rays checked out of their hotel in center-city Philadelphia, in anticipation of flying home after the game — and they can’t get back in, because the hotel is sold out.
They’re scrambling to find rooms — somewhere — as we speak.

Yeah, some asshole here turned off the Series to watch MNF instead
I got pissed, but changed the channel and became very happy almost instantly

All my Baseball Mogul simulations point to 2011
Unless I go with a J/M/G backstory. Than we sign a sign a 34 yr old Jose Reyes to a 80 million dollar deal

From Rotoworld
Monday’s World Series Game 5 was suspended in the sixth inning with the Rays and Phillies tied at 2.
It was quite fortunate for MLB that the Rays were able to tie it up in the sixth. The Phillies jumped out to a 2-0 lead thanks to Shane Victorino’s single off Scott Kazmir in the first, but the Rays came back with single runs off Hamels in the fourth and sixth, the second coming after B.J. Upton singled, stole second (after Tim McCarver said 14 times that it was impossible to run on such a wet track) and scored on Carlos Pena’s single to left. Hamels bounced back to get one more out, and the game was halted after 5 1/2 innings. Play will resume Tuesday at 7 p.m. EDT.

So do we get a new thread for the rest of the game or do we get to use this one?

Can we call in a pinch poster for Corco?
And is there any way they can call this game due to weather at this point?
I’m hoping we see outfielders with ice skates!

I wonder if there'll be a national anthem?

of course it's a hit
that’s great, professional hitting of the best kind.

And he can spin the ball while it's in the air so it moves...it's like player Tiger Woods golf!
I fucking hate you Mariners

wow. that was fast.

Not just because I was rooting for the Rays...but this series has sucked balls
And the weather didn’t help either.
I fucking hate you Mariners

but sounds like it is good they (in theory) only have 3 innings to play
as the temperature descends into the low 30s.
my, the Rays don’t look in sync at all. maybe that hotel in Delaware was just too delooxe

Yeah, well, regardless
they start Howell since he’s fresh and he’s already in the game, it’s a no-brianer.
