If anyone 'deserves' a World Series start, it's 22-year veteran Jamie Moyer. Not only has he been a stalwart since joining the Phillies mid-season in 2007, but also he and his wife do a great deal of good. Moyer has great respect for the game of baseball and always plays it right. Sure he's a local guy but that's only a bit of why he has won the hearts of Phillies' fans.
Game 3 tonight, weather pending. Garza vs. Moyer. Few give Moyer a chance against the Rays but no matter. Jamie will give it his best. Matt Garza, by the bye, has gone out of his way to dis the Phillies line-up.
I didn't watch the opening ceremonies for game 1 and am shocked to learn that FOX did not broadcast the 25-man rosters of the two teams. Instead, they introduced only the starting players. That is just awful. As Jimmy Rollins said, it took 25 players plus coaches to get to the World Series. It's not just about 9 guys.
