Dice - are you saying we shouldn't write about expecting victory?
Concerning the prediction yesterday, I could not believe the game I watched. The Phils just tore up a RH ERA LEADER the previous day and RH Bassit's best stats were from previous years. I nearly predicted a blowout, so my enthusiasm was even curbed. But Bassit pitched like an All Star. The home plate ump missed a lot and no doubt Bassit and his catcher will tell you he missed a LOT of Bassit's toughest strikes. IMHO, Bassit was that good for some reason, though it looked like the Phils just forgot how to hit.
Won't be the last time my enthusiasm gets the better of me and thanks in advance for your understanding should I write about expecting victory again.
As I am so tempted to do today... it looks even worse than the last game in the mismatch... but seeing what bad karma showed up last time, I will stfu for the good of the team. Very challenging.
