SO THERE I WAS dancing under Billy Penn's hat on South Broad Street last night and wearing my 1976 Bicentennial Phillies pinstripes home jersey with the number 45 in front and the name McGraw, when who do I see but my doppleganger. Make that my Tuggleganger -- a guy wearing a 1976 powder blue Phillies awa jersey with the Number 45 on front and the name McGraw on the back.

Hail fellow well met. Not only did he have Tug's shirt on his back but in his hand he carried the Daily News extra edition declaring WE WIN, the same headline that appeared in the Daily News in October 1980 when the Tugger fanned Willie Wilson of the Royals to nail down Philadelphia's first National League World Championship.

What a night. Can't wait for the parade.
