Additional info from the Fungi...
The official recap from game 7 reads like this:
237 fans watched an exciting game at The BallPork. The RICK WARPIGS topped
the DEREK FUNGOES by the slimmest of margins, 8 to 7.
The score was knotted at 6 after nine innings. RICK won it in the 12th
inning. After an out was recorded, Miguel Olivo began the RICK spurt when he
drew a walk. Gordon Beckham came next and he doubled. Akinori Iwamura then
stroked a base-hit making RICK the winners and sending the 237 fans home
happy. A wild affair, this game saw the lead change 5 times.
WTF? 237 FANS!!! Thats BS!! There must have been about 200 no shows!!!!!
And this from Berkman after game 8:

'I was in my hotel room the other night, working on my swing and made some
adjustments,' Berkman said. 'I'm always working on it. If they are getting
you out certain ways, you've got to make changes.'
Laughing my ass off at WTF!!
