Phils - Marlins (and other OoT Games)

Beat up on the Friars and we'll gain ground on someone this week as the Phish and Fils are playing each other in eastern PA - Johnson vs Moyer Marlins put up 1 in top 2

Five-two, Fish, as Phillies bat in the bottom of the eighth. I'm sort of pulling for the Phillies here so we can catch Florida tonight. Catch the Marlins, and then they become our partners.

Marlins blow it open late. I guess I'm hoping that Fla takes at least 2 this week. All that really matters is for us to keep winning and the rest of that stuff tends to take care of itself. In the ALEast -- BoSox win and the Rays win. Meanwhile in Texas, the stRangers are trying hard to blow a big lead. They led the Yanx 8-6 heading for the 9th after serving up an 9th inning GS to Richie Sexson.

Thuh-uhhhhhhh Yankees lose. (Arod GIDPs as the tying run to end it)

So the TB-Rays are finishing up their set with the Injuns in an afternoon game today. Down 6-4 heading into the 9th, Percival gives up one more to make it 7-4. So in bottom 9 Tampa responds with: - Double - Double - Homer (Gross) - Single - Walk - Homer (Pena) ... 6 runs before even making an out and the home team gets to do the jump-dance at home plate If nothing else, just the fact that the Yanx team, their announcers, and their fans have to lower themselves to paying attention to TB games makes this worth it even if the Rays ultimately fall short. btw, TB has already won more games this year than all of last and are only 2 wins off their best record ever! Oh, and Joba to the 15-Day DL (at least)

Rays have an amazing home record - 44 - 17 , I hope they win the division as they could be a tough team in the playoffs. It can't be good news that Joba is going to Dr. Andrews right from the get go , or did he see Dr. Altchek and was then sent there?

Altcheck on the job.

We have a final score in Philadelphia: Marlins 3, Phils 0.

Last 9 games against the Phils and Mets the Fish have gone 6-3.

I'll have to check Baseball Prospectus tomorrow to see if they're starting to respect the Marlins yet.
