So I was lucky enough to get to go to the Phillies/Rockies NLDS Game 1 last week (thanks, Mom, for giving me your ticket!). I took a bajillion pictures... you can check 'em out by clicking here. Game 1 was a seriously awesome game. I'd never seen Cliff Lee pitch in person before, and this was a hell of a first time to see him pitch! He pitched quite well--a gem of a complete game, in which he got one hit (maybe more--I'm not sure!) and stole a base. And even though his face was covered in scruff *sigh*, he still looked smokin' hot. My seats were right behind Jayson Werth, who was most certainly nice to look at. I brought my red cowbell out for its maiden ballpark voyage, haha. And I rang it like freakin' crazy. Hey, I only get to go to one playoff game this year, so I've gotta live it up, right? I also brought a red-and-white pom-pom from college (no, i wasn't a cheerleader--they had handed out the pom-poms at one of the college football games, and my school's colors were red and white, so I've turned it into a Phillies pom-pom now!), rally towels to wave around, and my very healthy vocal abilities...I may be just a little thing, but I can make a LOT of nosie when I'm yelling and shireking at or about BILFalicious ballplayers! (Thanks, Dad, for not kicking my ass for being completely loud and retarded, haha.) The Phillies won 5-1 in their first NLDS game. After losing their next game to the Rockies and then winning last night's late and exhausting game, the series is now 2-1 Phillies. I'm hoping they can win a third game tonight so that they have a little time to rest before meeting the Dodgers in the NLCS... Let's go, Phillies! (clap, clap, clap-clap-clap)
