Bohm with a double to RF which plates Castellanos.
4-2, Phils, with 2 out in the bottom of the 6th.
Padres are taking out Musgrove.
I agree. We deserve better. At this point the only better is winning the WS. I can live with that.I don’t follow baseball much anymore, but you folks got me to check in on this game on espn.com. So the Phillies were only 87-75 in the regular season. You guys deserve better.

Congrats to Phillies. But you couldn't pay me to be in the city of Philadelphia tonight. If you value your life.
I’ve defended rhys on here multiple times. He’s frustrating to root for at times, but if you think you’re finding a better 1B or that Hall is even close to him as a player you’re way off. He just won us 2 nlcs games, when he’s hit he is as good as anyone at the plate.
Just the realty my friend in this age of violence in our cities. When I lived in the area used to love to venture to South Street. I would never go down there now. Didn't they have a murder at one most popular intersections the other week?really? the residents probably wouldn't want you there anyway.
for what it's worth, I've spoken to about a dozen people that are in the city tonight, celebrating. All are having a good time, and all of them feel quite safe.

My last comment on this, as this is a Phillies thread.
We'll have to agree to disagree on cities. In the past few months I've been in Philadelphia, New York City, and Baltimore. I had a blast in each, and was not concerned at any time about where I was, or worried about where I could or could not go within those cities.
Things look real dangerous in Philadelphia this evening:
As for South Street in Philadelphia, there was a murder there earlier this year. It took place on South Street, between 4th & 5th. It occurred at 1 am, and started out as an argument and escalated into something far worse. I've been on South Street 4 or 5 times in the past year, and felt as safe there as I felt walking around the lawn at my house.
Take it to the test board Bitterman.I hope your experiences are the norm. Unfortunately crime is on the rise and at a split second, what may feel safe all of a sudden you could be involved in a drive by shooting. It's the age we live in. It's realty my friend. We need leaders who respect law enforcement and believe criminals eed to be in prison and not walking our streets. Good evening to you.
Homicides and overall violent crime are up in Philadelphia
Overall violent crime is up 7% from the same time last year.www.axios.com
Yeah … Got to feel bad for Houston fans, flooding last year, the Texans, a cheating scandal and now losing the World Series.On a positive note, one city will get the jubilation. On a negative note, the other will see their hometown franchise lower their WS winning success rate even more.
I was wondering about that. But, then I also thought about how the delays probably hurt the guy pitching more than the guys batting. So, there's that.Great game. It seemed that the ground crew fixed up the mound two times before the inning for the Padres, but not the Phils. I found that frustrating. That couldn't have been the ground crew's decision
It’s Monday morning and I agree with you that it has still not sunk in. What did we see in the bottom of the 8th yesterday??? Just freaking surreal!!!!It has not yet sunk in that the Philadelphia Phillies are going to the World Series.
What just happened the past three weeks?
HIGH FIVES TO ALL OF YOU! WOOOOOOO
Well they certainly hurt Dominguez and his grip on the ball, who typically has good control and yet threw 3 condition-driven wild pitches...I was wondering about that. But, then I also thought about how the delays probably hurt the guy pitching more than the guys batting. So, there's that.
For the Phillies to overcome the Dominguez/grip debacle defines the resiliency of this team.Well they certainly hurt Dominguez and his grip on the ball, who typically has good control and yet threw 3 condition-driven wild pitches...
Then the mound was reworked before Darvish took the mound in the next 1/2 inning.
