So, with Turambar off North killing things (I presume), it fell upon me to cover the Friday recap. “Are they playing in Philadelphia?” asked Mrs. SnakePit. When I answered in the affirmative, she replied, “Does that mean that weird green thing will be roaming the stands?” Going forward, I will always refer to the Phillies’ mascot as the Philadephia Weird Green Thing. Anyway, this game proved to be a test of resilience, both of the D-backs and their fans, though those who stuck around were rewarded by the team making this much more a contest than it seemed it would be in the early stages.
