A cute moment at Citizen’s Bank Park indeed.  The media outlets are eating this up.  Jason Werth sent the couple a signed jersey and baseball to make up for the thrown foul ball.

It’s almost baseball time, which means I’ll be working on coming out with more Phillies Wallpapers.  I’ve added some widescreen versions of some Chase Utley Wallpapers.  My all new editions are Cole Hamels and Brad Lidge.  I owe it to them after an amazing 2008.  May 2009 bring the same success.  I guess I should also announce that I’ve added a calendar to the right navigation bar if you ever want to navigate our archives.  Enjoy the wallpapers.  I’m going to be working on a Jason Werth and more Shane Victorino wallpapers soon.

The Phillies fan in body paint certainly delivered some karma to the Phillies (and the Eagles to boot).  Let’s re-cap:

– Phillies win Game 3 after Jamie Moyer pitched a gem, 3 HRs get the job done, and Phillies get the final run to seal the deal in the bottom of the 9th thanks to a player hit by a pitch, an arrant throw allowed him to get from 1st to 3rd, and Ruiz was able to get him in off an infield hit.  Even though I had to get up at 8:00 a.m. Sunday Morning, every inning of that game was worth staying up until 2:00 a.m. for.

– Eagles get a huge win at home over Atlanta.  We’ll get to the good and bad from that later.

– Phillies win Game 4 after JOE BLANTON pitches a gem AND homers for good measure.  There was a flurry of home runs by the Phils.  It seemed as if just about everyone in their lineup had a homer (or RBI).  HR: Ryan Howard had 2, Joe Blanton added his in the 5th, Jimmy Rollins was 6 inches away from his, but that didn’t matter because he got a double out of it and Jason Werth homered at the next at bat to take the game to 8-2.  RBI:  We got one from Pat Burrell and Pedro Feliz.  Surprisingly no RBIs from Ultey, but he got one base twice on walks and scored 2 runs.
