Wrong again...Even if baseball fans may be Philly's weakest link...it's still Philly and they ARE still intense. Rolen knew when the fans wanted a curtian call...it's a bit obvious if after you have a multi-homerun game and the fans cheer loudly...I've witnessed it, it was a blatant call for a curtain call and Rolen didn't give one. This happened multiple times also. So, don't act like just because the Cardinals may have 20,000 more people out to the game, like it's not hard to see when the fans want a curtain call. You can't say that I'm wrong, I watch at least 150 Phillies games a year, I would know.
