I Was There…

…last year when Brad Lidge dropped to the ground and reached for the sky and the Phillies won their first title since 1980.

…on March 17th, 2007 when Ron Lewis hit a three-pointer to send the NCAA Second Round game to overtime and the Ohio State Buckeyes won 78-71.

…when Rollins dove, flipped to Utley for one, and threw to Howard for two, and the Phillies won their second straight NL East Title.

…the time Chris Wells and Antonio Pittman each had 50-yard touchdown runs and Ohio State beat Michigan in the #1 vs #2 game 42-39.

…to see Jason Knapp throw the ball 98 mph on his 102nd pitch to strike out his 12th batter in five innings.

…when Sebastian Valle sent the ball over the wall in left, making it 9-0 in the SAL Northern Division Championship game.

I have been fortunate to have seen these, and many more, “I was there” moments in my life and on Monday, September 14th and Tuesday, September 15th, I’ll be there to see the Lakewood BlueClaws try and win their second SAL Championship…Will you?
