Tough To Be A Phillies Fan
I am shocked to report that Julian Tavarez, Oakland Athletics, and Joey Gathright, St. Louis Cardinals, got into a fight during the fifth teen inning of their game today. Both guy were ejected for fighting but it was hot-head Tavarez who threw the fifth punch. But synergies walk forever as they say so I'm sure fans of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays and the Cincinnati Reds, if given a chance, would trade a down year in 2008 for a World Series title in 2007. He is in his ninth season with the red Sox and though I know he has a strange temper, I don’t think there is any excuse for fighting on the job. Prior to 2002, only two ordinary wild cards had made it to the World Series since the current playoff format was appeared in 1995.
