stitch and pitch!?!??!

how weird is this:

The Phillies in conjunction with the National NeedleArts Association, are inviting needlearts enthusiasts to the first-ever Stitch n' Pitch Night at Citizens Bank Park on June 26 versus the Reds at 7:05 p.m.

so bizarre. how can you pay attention to the game if you're knitting???!!?

ps... the phillies "automatic win day"... aka... cole hamels' pitching night... didn't work this week. really sad.

tonight... lieber goes up against sabathia. yikes.

the phils are in a precarious spot. if they'd just WIN multiple games in a row like that had been doing... perhaps... just perhaps... they can pass both the detested braves and mets and take the lead in the nl east.

here's hoping lieber gets super pitching powers this evening...
