(Was there some other sporting event going on?)

Below the fold, video of all twenty-seven outs.

    Just awesome. For some reason, I can't stop coming up with bad tabloid headlines.  It's a Halladay Weekend. . . or Halladay in the Sun(shine State). . . or The Doctor is In. . .or Marlins Have the Tombstone Blues. . . 

    The crazy thing is, he still isn't having as good a season as Jimenez.

    AMAZING! Made me even more annoyed that they changed the channel at the place I was having dinner (Smokin' Betty's) to have both tvs on the Flyers game. Glad I got home in time to see the end of Halladay's perfect game. Would it have killed them to leave one tv on the Phillies game?

    Philadelphia UNION 3-2, Danny Mwanga once again scores a winner in the 93rd minute.

  4. The second most important soccer-related story in Philadelphia tomorrow.  Jozy!

    I was at the first game (Landon!) and flipped between NHL and Union later on.  Completely missed Roy apart from bits and pieces of the second and third innings.  What does it mean that the Flyers, the USMNT and our MLS expansion franchise still managed to outscore the Phils (who just got blanked again)?  England got more goals via Japan's own goals this morning (two) than the Phillies scored runs last night, in fact.

    If Halladay is the hardest working man in baseball, then Greinke is the hardest-luck pitcher in baseball. The moniker was particularly apt yesterday.

  7. Y'know, we should have done an Official ALOTT5MA Outing for that game.  We haven't done one since ... how many summers ago was Sing-A-Long 1776?

    The crazy thing is that Halladay almost walked the first batter.  He was headed to first when the umpire punched him out.  What a game.

    Whew.  Two in a month.  Congratulations to Halladay.  I can't wait to tell my nieces and nephews about his exploits when I'm older.  "He toiled in that land to the north, beloved but out of the spotlight..."
