Right state, but...

For whatever reason, a throng of fans clad in Phillies gear has made its way into Al Lang Field.

Nothing wrong with being a fan of neither of the two teams playing. But these folks are wearing the colors as if the Phillies, not the Pirates, are playing the Rays today.

A few were here as early as 8 a.m., standing near the players entrance, waiting for autographs. Even I was thrown off - I asked colleague Roger Mooney if the Phillies were in town.

Dumb question. If the Phillies were here, I'd still be sleeping.

First pitch in less than two hours.
