Will the Phillies win again??

In my short life, I've only seen the Phillies win the world series once. 2008 On October 29th. They were suppose to win it on the 27th, my dad's birthday, but it turned out to be a rained out game.

Now it's getting serious. Every October it gets serious for baseball fans. Why? For us, we call it Red October. Which means every day in October, it's make or break for the Phillies. They won the world series before in 1980. It was considered one of the greatest days in Philadelphia. I even remember the 2008 win.

It was the 9th inning and my dad was at the edge of his seat. I ran down to the basement where he was to join him. The Phillies were ahead by a run. My mom was asleep and brother was still in college, watching the game as well. After the last strike, we went insane. Everyone in Philadelphia did. The Phillies won the world series. My uncle called us. I talked to my brother, my mom even woke up screaming happily.

Every sport station was covering the win. They haven't won the series since then. I'm hoping that my dad gets to see the Phillies win again, even if it's on his birthday. I'm wishing the Phillies good luck this season. They won last night, hopefully they'll win again. But will they win the Series if they make it that far? Only time will tell. Till then... Caio Bloggers and GO PHILLIES!!!!!
