Nymr83 Jul 05 2008 05:03 PM

i like the lineup, pitches to hit for church infront of wright

Zvon Jul 05 2008 05:09 PM

Reyes and Church set the table with leadoff singles in the 1st. Mr. Wright up.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 05:12 PM

Wright swings at a bad hitters pitch. Maybe just a bad pitch, and hits into a DP. Reyes scores on the play. Beltran pops out to the catcher. That should have been a MUCH bigger inning.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 05:19 PM

Nice first from Maine. 1-2-3

themetfairy Jul 05 2008 05:31 PM

Another nice inning for Maine. And it's nice seeing the Red, White and Blue logo caps again.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 05:40 PM

Nice try Jose. That umps callin the same pitch a strike one time, a ball the next. Make up your mind blue!

themetfairy Jul 05 2008 05:43 PM

Another 1-2-3 frame for Maine. Now it's time to give him some support!

Zvon Jul 05 2008 05:45 PM

Maine lookin good thru three.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 05:48 PM

Wright wrips a double! Would have liked that in the 1st but I wont complain. Whoops, just did. Beltran, comeon

themetfairy Jul 05 2008 05:53 PM

And Wright comes home on what D-Dad described as, "a Little League play." We'll go to the county fireworks show on that note.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 05:54 PM

OO! Howard throws the pickoff away! 2-0

Zvon Jul 05 2008 05:55 PM

Zvon Jul 05 2008 06:01 PM

Easley drives in Beltran and its 3-0 .

Zvon Jul 05 2008 06:11 PM

That wasn't a bad pitch but you have to keep the ball down to Howard. Smacks a 3 run homer and its tied. Opposite field.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 05 2008 06:25 PM

This team really beat my spirit last night. If they don't win tonight this may be it for them. Or me, or something.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 05 2008 06:45 PM

The whole season is coming apart before our eyes: Maine is having elbow trouble (in his non-throwing elbow) and is leaving the game here in the 6th. Maine of course has allowed a single hit but it was a 3-run homer.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 06:47 PM

Ohhh noooo. Maine hurt. Heilman coming on. No definite word on whats wrong but Maine grabbed his left arm in pain after a pitch. Not his pitching arm, but still bad news. Cramp?

Rockin' Doc Jul 05 2008 06:52 PM

Well, at east it's his left elbow. I have just about given hope of this team making the postseason. They have done nothing to demonstrate that they are capable of winning 6-8 straight or getting on a hot streak and winning 15 of 20 games. They just have too many holes in the offense and the rotation just isn't deep enough to carry the sporadic offense.

KC Jul 05 2008 06:53 PM

Mighty strange, no point in speculating. Heilman finishes off that. Cramp report from dugout while typing.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 05 2008 06:56 PM

Argenis Reyes, baton twirler, files out. I'd like a triple now from the Real Reyes.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 05 2008 06:58 PM

Zvon Jul 05 2008 06:59 PM

Yea, cramp. Odd. Guess it was so bad they couldn't do anything but remove him from the game. Whew, good thing they held up Aguila. Reyes double has it 2nd and 3rd. 2 out. DO IT CHURCH!

Nymr83 Jul 05 2008 07:01 PM

Church hit by a pitch, Moyer won't be allowed to face David Wright.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 05 2008 07:02 PM

Church plunked and the bags are drunk. Argenis Reyes' failure to make a productive out (or a non-out) still looming huge but Wright will hit vs. Madsen.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:04 PM

Moyer hits Church! Good at bat. And that'll be it for Moyer-glad to see him go. Madson coming on for the Phils. Bases fulla Mets with Mr. Wright coming to the plate.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 05 2008 07:06 PM

Same old Mets

Nymr83 Jul 05 2008 07:06 PM

shit

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:07 PM

Wrights using the wrong bats tonight. 2nd broken bat. This one a weak ground out to short. GAH!!!!

bmfc1 Jul 05 2008 07:08 PM

Heilman worked hard. He deserved a victory.

Grote15 Jul 05 2008 07:12 PM

Shea had a lousy team when it opened in 64 and has a lousy team to close it out. Some syncronicity in that. Best part is since we'll be out of it we can storm the field on the last home game have fun and take the forfeit. See ya in 09 this team is toast

bmfc1 Jul 05 2008 07:13 PM

Jerry walks Jenkins, hitting .236, to pitch to Coste but last night he didn't walk Victorino, hitting .263, to pitch to Coste.

bmfc1 Jul 05 2008 07:14 PM

I can't believe that didn't go out.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:16 PM

Coste almost knocks it out. Caught at the wall in left center. Whew. Balls not carrying there tonight. Good thing too. Manuel pulls Smith.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:17 PM

Feliciano will deal to Werth.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Jul 05 2008 07:18 PM

Feliciano sucks

bmfc1 Jul 05 2008 07:20 PM

What's Feliciano's record to the first batter he faces?

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:21 PM

Feliciano fails.

bmfc1 Jul 05 2008 07:22 PM

Zvon wrote: Feliciano fails. Fails again.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:24 PM

We got a break on that call on Werth at 2nd. He was safe. Would have been simpler if Aguira hit the cutoff man. Don't think we were gonna have a play at the plate there, thought it may have been close if it was perfect.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:25 PM

Easley with a one out single. Hey, we are still in this one guys.

KC Jul 05 2008 07:26 PM

Victorino has that right field gap thing down pretty tight.

Frayed Knot Jul 05 2008 07:27 PM

This is really getting annoying with these two teams: we never get a clutch hit and they never fail to get a clutch hit -- that bullpen chart they threw up there a few minutes ago said it all. Somehow we beat them 4 of 6 early in the season but that was so long ago I no longer believe it actually happened. And now we have a chance to either confirm or disprove my little theory.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:28 PM

The other Manuel goes to get Romero after a Delgado single makes it 1st and 3rd. Gordon on--all these pitchers on the road to Lidge are reachable.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:29 PM

there's beer for you Marlon if you can do your job here.

Frayed Knot Jul 05 2008 07:30 PM

PH-ing here for Castro makes more sense than last night as it lessens the GiDP chance. Gotta PH for Aguila too. Time for Marlon to earn his keep here.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:31 PM

YEA! Wild pitch and we tie it!

Frayed Knot Jul 05 2008 07:32 PM

We now have scored 6 runs in the last two nights: - on a groundout (when Reyes beat out a GiDP) - on a bases-loaded walk - on a GiDP - on an error - on a hit (Easley's single) - and now on a WP That's some offense!!!!

My kingdom for a fuckin' hit!

Schneider!!! Whodathunkit?

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:37 PM

WOOT! Schneider with a 2 out 2 RBI double!

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:48 PM

DONE!

KC Jul 05 2008 07:49 PM

Nice job by Sanchez, and way to come back from last night's thing.

KC Jul 05 2008 07:50 PM

Booth reports Church left because of dizziness.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:51 PM

Church had to leave the game due to dizziness. Ugh.

Frayed Knot Jul 05 2008 07:55 PM

Ugly infield single but I'll take it. Nice read by Tatis both times. That Feliz is a pretty good 3rd baseman. I didn't see much of him when he was out on the west coast

Zvon Jul 05 2008 07:59 PM

Lets Go

Frayed Knot Jul 05 2008 08:03 PM

And the rout is on!!

Zvon Jul 05 2008 08:03 PM

Got some insurance. 8-4 I like. And Chavez knocks in another with a rope to center! 9-4 Does Wags still get the 9th?

Methead Jul 05 2008 08:04 PM

What team am I watching? This late-game rally has me all confused.

AG/DC Jul 05 2008 08:06 PM

Phils announcer: "That'll send the Phillies phaithphul toward the exits." Well, no, that'll send the Phillies phorlorn toward the exits.

Zvon Jul 05 2008 08:06 PM

WTF? They are puttin down the tarp before there's any rain.

KC Jul 05 2008 08:06 PM

Well, Seanez helped the cause. Rain delay? Ya gotta be fucking kidding me.

Gary/Keith/Ron made a big deal about Tatis's glove at 1B during the 9th... specifically the red webbing. I thought I noticed something, so I snapped a photo. It's a Pujols model! (Click for full size image.) [URL=http://img372.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dsc04965yx2.jpg][/URL]
