Comcast is selling out again. Bastards. Phillies games are the main reason I stay plugged in.
i live out of area, but have mlb.tv. that being said, i still only have cable for live sports even though i have mlb.tv and league pass due to the nationally broadcast games bull shit. i need to figure out how to better watch the sports ball.

Finally, Santana’s slump is done!
Santana, Franco, and others are getting on base, the Phillies are hitting singles and reaping the benefits. I Posted about
their new approach last week. They are meeting the ball where it is pitched. Old fashioned but proven way of hitting
for average. GO PHILIES!

Remind Flex of this when needed!

De Los Santos is the talk at Lehigh. Obtained in the Galvis trade. Making Klentak look like a genious! His pitching
stats are incredible. Could make the Phillies by all star break or sooner!

15-2 against Non NL East opponents. Time to fix that East record tomorrow.

I should note those 2 losses were to the team that has yet to lose a series on the season.

Vinnie with 12 strikeouts. Santana with the 3 run bomb, and Herrera with the long on base streak! The Phillies win!
it doesn't get any better!

This unexpected 4-game sweep over SF with starters Eflin, Nola, Pivetta, and Velasquez is more than we felt possible. And we have Arrieta going tomorrow against the scuffling Mutts! Is this a decent 5-man rotation, or not? Still, much to be proven but I’m liking it. It also eases the pain of Sunday’s 9th inning, best forgotten heart breaker in WSH.

The Phils are now 4-4 in Velasquez’s starts. Vinnie’s 6 inning, 5 hit, 12 K effort against a quality Giants team is worth drinking to. Plus he’s 1.80 in his last two starts. We’re in fine shape if he can stay consistent.

Very good exciting also to witness Santana’s wicked 3-run homer to put the Phils on top 4-3. :suds:

fuck, we now have a third Facebook game? i want 3 dollars back from mlb.tv.
I thought it was funny watching on Facebook and so many people with mlb extra innings were complaining because they paid the subscription and weren't getting the game. Mlb extra innings has never been anywhere near 100% coverage.

I don't think Comcast has any say. Mlb tv can't show these games. Neither team can show these games. Mlb extra innings can't show them.

Somehow, the fans get screwed on this nonsense!

We are a half game behind the Muts and have a winning steak of 4 games. I hope this becomes habit and as Northeast has pointed out, the Phillies have stopped swinging for the fences and are just going for OBP with meeting the ball and settling for singles, doubles. Looks a lot like Money Ball. This is beginning to get really fun to watch.
