THE PHILLIES WIN THE FIRST GAME OF THE WORLD SERIES!!!
I found that out when I fired up the computer, and went to www.cbssportsline -- at 12:30 AM.
You see, I had watched the whole game: Chase Utley's first inning home run, Cole Hamel's masterful pitching through seven innings, the Rays chipping away at the three run lead, the Rays' fans ringing those stupid, tacky cow bells, Jimmy Rollins and Ryan Howard flaying away helplessly with runners in scoring position, Ryan Madson getting the Rays out 1-2-3 in the 8th inning to set up a save for Brad Lidge, Lidge warning up in the bullpen, about to come in for the ninth inning ...
... and then when I woke up on the couch, the local Fox news was on.
I missed the bottom of the ninth! So, it was off to the computer to find out the final score.
I guess the nap means my sleep deprivation won't be so bad today ...
When I'm Commissioner of Baseball, the games will start at 7:00 PM.
