It was with a tinge of sadness I watched the last out of World Series game six on Wednesday night. As Shane Victorino grounded out, Yankee Stadium erupted with the cheers of ecstatic fans whose favorite team had just won their 27th world championship. Not so long ago, just a little bit over a year ago, I was one of those fans. Well, congratulations to the Yankees. But, also, congratulations to the Phillies on another stellar season. I am not disappointed in my team; I am proud of them for commanding a lead all season and beating the Rockies and the Dodgers to be the first National League team to return to the World Series consecutively since the ’95-’96 Braves. At a meeting in NYC on Wednesday, I refused my friend’s pleas to stay in the city that night for the game. I didn’t want to be in New York, I wanted to be in Philadelphia, rooting on my team with fellow fans! I truly believed the Series was going to game seven, and I didn’t give up believing in them until the last out was on the board. And today, just two days after the last game, I already miss baseball season — and I can’t wait until spring training starts. And, not to badmouth the other team, but I need to comment on one small thing — Yankees Stadium was not even sold out for the games.  In Philadelphia, those tickets go — and quickly. With the Philadelphia fans firmly behind their team, I think we have a long future of successful seasons ahead of us. See you in 2010, boys! — Kim Krol, eFlyer editor, circulation and public relations executive
