Tonight Julie and I went to the Game 6 of the National League Championship Series at Shea stadium. The Mets managed to force a game 7, winning 4-2. As you can tell by the photo below, I started the solid, yet steady clap that lasted all of the ninth inning which put the Mets over the top. As you can tell in the photographs, I’ve yet to find a place to get my hair cut that I’m comfortable with.

NLCS Game 1 at Shea Stadium.
Last night Julie and I went to Game 1 of the National League Championship Series between the Mets and the St. Louis Cardinals. We orginally had tickets to game two but due to the weather Game 1 was postponed until Friday and our game became the first of the series. As a student of College Football, I’ve never been to a playoff game of any kind until last night. Obviously my streak of good luck continues seeing that the Mets won 2-0. The highlight of the game for me was seeing Julio ‘All Ass’ Franco at bat. My theory on Franco is that he puts his ass into every hit. It’s all Ass.
All and all it was a good night. The weather wasn’t too bad, our seats were great and the Mets won. Plus I got to see Darryl Strawberry, when is that not a good thing?
Horse Cops Defend Baseball.
You might recall my disdain for Horse Cops… well it still grows. Last night we checked out the Mets – Pirates game and on our way into the stadium I saw my mortal enemy: 2 Horse Cops. Thankfully these horse cops weren’t chasing people; as is their habit. There also was no tear gas used on the public which is the Horse Cops weapon of choice.
Onto the game. Which the Mets won 7-5. My favorite player Billy Wagner had a successful outing, Jose Reyes had a stolen base, which I’m told he’s pretty good at. On top of all this we got to see a mullet sitting a couple rows in front of us.
As they say… it was a fun time had by all.
