Cliff Lee: Well worth $35!

We waited and waited. When the season started, the price of the MLB.com computer package was (we think) about $140. For that, you got to watch every game on your computer -- most in high definition. The Playmaker would ask every few days, "When are you going to order the MLB package?" As the Phillies did their annual April slow start, our answer was, "When the Phillies start playing well, we'll get it."

Yesterday, we finally pulled the trigger. A full three months after the Phillies started playing well.

And what made us do it?

Well, the price had dropped all the way down to $35.

That and the fact the Phillies went out and got Cliff Lee. We did not want to miss his first start. It's as simple as that.

And so it was last night that The Wife woke us up on the couch around 10 to tell us she was going to bed. We, instead, headed for the computer.

Three hours later, we were proud to say we saw Cliff Lee's entire complete game victory (in HD, no less). And we got to listen to the Phillies' announcers call the game.

Here's the final batter of the game.
