I was beginning to think i might never see it. I was mad when Hoffman blew the save in 06. I was pissed when the AL won in the 15th inning in 08. When Crawford robbed that home run last year i gave up hope. But here they are. For the first time since 2001, the National League has home field advantage.
I may have exagerrated a bit. Or a lot. The total disaster that is home field advantage/all star game still sucks. But it worked for once.
Sadly i dont think the Dodgers had one good moment. Kuo threw the ball way over Adrian Gonzalez's head for an error. Broxton's "save" was sketchy. Ethier did hit a single that was almost an RBI an Furcal drew a walk.
But the game is over now. Time to start looking forward to the second half. Thursday we go into St. Louis. We swept them earlier this year, but they took two of three last year in St. Louis. So it keeps you guessing.
A last note. Bud Selig adressed the 'state of the game' (linked here) at fanfest. Notice the first thing he says is "Atendence has been good." I think the game is going fine too Bud, but when you start off with "Atendace is good" it makes me you only care about the money. Which you proably do.
Anyways enough raving. Goodnight America
