Check out <a href="http://www.fantasybaseballcafe.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=2517913#p2517913" rel="nofollow">these photos</a>. I am convinced. The cleat marks in Matt's hand are proof enough for me (to all you doubting Thomases ;) ). At any rate, what fantastic game. Matt was safe. Check out these photos. I am convinced.

I didn't see it, but I hafta agree with Rome if it was as dubious a call as he claims. Alas, go NL West champs (whoever you should have been)! qtonygwynnfanb Jim Rome agrees with you, Kathy, and said it was a real shame that a game that important turned on a missed call at the plate.

Both teams did what baseball is all about; they fought hard to reach the finish line. I agree, QB - this was the WS game for me. I doubt the others leading to WS champions come even close to the excitement and emotion of last night. Now! Rockies! Go do your job - get rid of the Phillies and anyone else that stands in your way to the WS ring! My flag is lowered in respect for last night, although I still hold that the last call was wrong. He never touched home plate. [just HAD to get that one in there. LOL] It was our Hoffman that lost the game for us, again. He just seems to fall apart in crucial games, especially when it comes to post season. Oh well. Go Rockies!!! :) It was a great and puzzling game at the same time.

Absolutely unbelievable. That was the World Series as far as qb is concerned. I just hope the Rockies hold up their end of the deal now and don't pull a "1995 roll-over" against the Phillies. It would be a shame for a great team like the Padres to have to endure a Phillies sweep of the Rockies now. qb Unbelievable. Absolutely unbelievable.

The Rockies are probably the most exciting team on the scene this year and probably, [begrudgingly admitting it. Ouch! that hurt] deserve to go to post season. the Padres have shown a death wish, so may well get their wish tonight. My hat off to Buddy Black though. First year as skipper, one of the few ex-pitchers to take on the challenge, and has done a great job. He's like the girl with the curl though. And lately he's been very bad in some of his decisions. He's a quick study though and next year should be exciting again. I still wave the Padres' flag but will lower it in recognition of the Rockies great ride if it comes down to that tonight about 10PM. ((((qb))))

You really do. And if the Padres win tomorrow, I'll be joining you in their camp. qb Heh, heh…

I counted on a team that isn't even going to be in the playoffs. The NY Mets now have accomplished one of the worst last-minute collapses in baseball history. Let me recalibrate.

God is indeed all about the down-n-out. The Yanks looked pitiful, downright ugly, to begin the season. More than 14 games out of first. It looked grim. We've all witnessed a miracle, no? The Yanks are giving the BoSox a run this week while securing (sorry, Paul M.) the wild card. Truly a miracle from where they were just a few months ago. A miracle. God does indeed look favorably upon the lowly. Go Yankees! As for that bet, Mike - that was then. And this is now - Yanks are the best in baseball right now! That’s right, Rex.
