Phillies--Padres Gamethread.

[northeastphillyguy]

Time for a new win streak! Ike has been pitching well lately!

 

[jvett77]

If McClure's Marauders can't go six, Phils are dead. Worse, if they can't go 7 or 8, Phils are mostly dead. Only the Beast can bring the team back tonight.

Pinto is not ready for prime time, Stinks! Hoskins has awakened! The Beast is on the prowl.
Gave him 5 cheesesteaks for his two bombs!

 

[jvett77]

Think how powerful the Phillies would be if both Franco and Hoskins were putting up big power numbers at the same time, along with Williams good hitting.

Franco is having a real off year. His 2013-2014 MiL numbers were excellent as were his 15-16 ML results. Right now, he's wild at the plate swinging like a girl. It's too early to give up on him but that could happen. Hoskins looks disciplined and consistent and you can see that in his ABs especially those two shots yesterday.

Franco will not listen to stairs. Another Dom brown type who will not live up to expectations.

Maybe fraudco after all. There was as much excitement over Franco as there's been with Hoskins.

Maybe Stairs should suggest Pro Test 180, a popular nutritional supplement.

He really needs a brainpower supplement!

Alfaro looked horrible in that last AB. Worse than Franco. Needs another year of seasoning.

 

[Dusty]

They'll be a lot better next season.

 

[jvett77]

Lol. Jorge sends first homer to deep center. Phils down 4-2.

 

[jvett77]

Leiter, JR, getting a lot of good seasoning tonight. Franco error at third opens the gates, Pathetics down 8-4.

 

[northeastphillyguy]

The Beast hits homerun number three!

 

[jvett77]

Pivetta is on. 6 Ks in 2 innings! I wonder what he's on.

 

[jvett77]

Pivetta is garbage. 1-0 Padres.

 

[jvett77]

Cy Richards, I guess. These Iron Pigs are stinking it up.

 

[jvett77]

Dildoes are only behind 3-0 as they come to bat in the 8th. All they need is a small barrage of hits and homer to tie this. Hoskins will be coming up.

 

[jvett77]

Pathetics brought a truck load of Philadelphia water with them on this road trip. Just heard Pivetta was sent down to LHV. Why not do the same to Franco. He needs a little more seasoning.

 

[Frizzle]

WTF was the double steal letting them get 2 runs in?

So glad the season is almost over and next year we will have a new manager and some new coaches!
