P Phillies 1 -- C Reds 0

Halladay pitches a No-Hitter. Congrats to him, but the announcers need to get their facts straight. It's the first No-Hitter. Don Larsen pitched a perfect game in the World Series, as in he didn't even walk a batter or hit anyone. Little difference, but there's one still.

Wh00t!, but...

A perfect game is a no-hitter. By definition, there are no hits in a perfect game. It is therefore a no-hitter. A perfect game is just a more awesomer no-hitter.

Regardless, Halladay is redonkulous and the Phillies are going to win the series this year.

McCheese is right.

 

[Ice]

I still take it as two separate things.

Also, we'll see about the Phillies. People thought the same last year because they had Lee.

Yup. This.

So Rangers again won against Tampa and now leads the series 2-0 heading into Saturday's game 3 at Texas.

Braves at Giants will be starting game 1 in about half an hour from now.


Yankees now have a 2-0 lead over the Twins as they go back to New York on Saturday for game 3. WHOO!!

What you see here, courtesy of Brooks Baseball, is a plot of Hunter Wendelstedt's whimsical strikezone from yesterday's Yankees-Twins game. The red marks were called strikes; the green ones were balls. No, that's not how a strikezone is supposed to look.

Wow.

 

[Ice]

Yeah, throughout the whole game I was just baffled by how he called everything.

 

[Ice]

:lol:

 

[Captain Canuck]

:lol:

wow, yeah. Rough evening for the Reds, but still, GO Phillies!

So the Tampa Bay Rays force a game 4 for tomorrow, meanwhile the New York Yankees sweep, yet again, the Minnesota Twins and head to the ALCS!!!! :rockon:

 

[Jaggyd]

So, #1 Alabama lost, and #2 The Ohio State University won, are we going to see the Buckeyes at #1?

 

[Captain Canuck]

the Maple Leafs are tied for first place in the NHL right now!

there have only been two games so far, but we've won both of them!

 

[Ice]

Could the Rays be forcing a game 5? They're currently up 5-0 against the Rangers in the bottom of the 6th.

IF the Buckeyes manage to mess up next week (which I hope they do), that gives now #2 Oregon Ducks a chance to get the number one spot. That 'll make Duck fans out here CRAZY.

 

[Ice]

Tampa has forced a game 5, winning today 5-2. So now the winner on Tuesday will play against the Yankees this Friday. Who will it be?! Dun. Dun. Dunnn....

 

[ultimatedjf]

I hope they lose.

 

[E]

So, #1 Alabama lost, and #2 The Ohio State University won, are we going to see the Buckeyes at #1?

But even better - Michigan State crushed Michigan.

 

[Ice]

Phillies make it to the ALCS and now await the winner between Giants and Braves. I'm sure the Giants will take the game tomorrow. I'll be going for them over the Phillies.

 

[Joe Kalicki]

First place Chicago Bears.


And probably Favre will be suspended and Rodgers out at least a week with a concussion.

 

[Ice]

Hell of a crazy and tense game 1 for Yankees/Rangers. But the Yankees came back in fashion and took the lead of the game and win 6-5. Now they lead the ALCS 1-0 over the Rangers!

Game 2 starts tomorrow at 4pm, with the NLCS at 8pm.

 

[Captain Canuck]

After tonight's victory over the New York Rangers, the Leafs are 4-0 and in first place in the NHL!

not that many of you care, because most of you are American and it's MLB playoffs and the NFL season is going on too.
