Phillies Clinch, MLB Tweets Me

As I lifted my 5th beer in grand exultation celebrating a third straight Phillies division championship, I was overwhelmed by the onslaught of messages I received from MLB making me aware of this fact.

Alright, so I’m a nerd. My email and Twitter account all happened to be open at this point. If my phone was on, I’m sure it would have vibrated its way across the room. As Ryan Howard touched first for the final out, I pumped my fist with one hand and tweeted with the other. I’m sure this is a sign of the impending apocalypse. But who cares… the Phillies are playing in October, people!
