A Double WHAT?!?!
The Phillies are playing a double header in Florida today. For the longest time I've wanted to go to a double header. I probably missed out on a few chances at the Vet, but its' hard to imagine another chance coming up in the home park. For the first time in my life, I find myself envying Marlins fans (all three of them).
With the way the Phillies sell out games these days, its looking like I will never get to see one in the home park. But the fact that they're playing one today renews the hope that some day, I will see one. Hopefully featuring the Phils (but not necessarily). The Nationals or Pirates seem to be my best bet without traveling a great distance. And the Nats would probably have a decent shot at it being against the Phils (though I could see them doing one of those damn split doubleheaders, just because the Phils fans give them a nice little attendance boost). Regardless, it seems like I'll have to travel to get this done. I'll try to be more careful to make note of rainouts next April.
