It was almost a fitting end to Philadelphia frustration

I watched a few innings of the Monday Night travesty and the monsoon was continuing...

All the while the Phillies had the lead.
And I started thinking of how starved Philadelphia fans are for a title and I imagined how appropriate it would have been to see them win the World Series... in front of an empty house at 3AM.

Baseball would have found a way to give Philadelphia a title without any joy.

They still might.
