Giles gets us out of that half inning and we are up next.

 

[Retroram52]

Asche is really beginning to master the golf swing as he did there with that hit that went for an out.

 

[jvett77]

He hits another here? I'm too excited. lol.

 

[jvett77]

That's the Howard we know. K.

 

[Retroram52]

Swing and miss by Howard and Ruf is pinch hitting for Giles.

 

[jvett77]

Let's go ruf. Your salary is at stake.

 

[Retroram52]

Yea, it's just a matter of time before the Howard we all know re-emerges.

 

[Retroram52]

On to the ninth and this will be a nice win to open this series.

 

[Retroram52]

Papelbon is in to secure the win.

 

[jvett77]

This game's in the bag. Better hitting for the Phillies. Now if they could just stay on it.

 

[Retroram52]

Got Brignac swinging and one away from a nice win.

 

[Retroram52]

Great play by Galvis and we take game one of the series 7-3. On we go to tomorrow 5-9.

 

[jvett77]

Nice win - 5.00 Hamels is on tomorrow. Hope they get behind him with some power. See y'all tomorrow.

This game's in the bag. Better hitting for the Phillies. Now if they could just stay on it.

I totally agree. If this line-up would get a fire in their bellies and stay with it and string together some wins it would be way better watching than all that losing.

 

[Cedrique]

I'd like to see Revere and Herrera get hot at the same time. It would make the games more interesting. It might not be enough to carry the team but at least it would keep them from getting shut out so much.

 

[Retroram52]

Damn straight Cedrique. Those two and have Asche continue to stay around .400 and add Galvis' recent hitting and play and then we would have some real interesting games.

 

[jvett77]

Interesting match up tonite with former Phils prospect Cosart vs lackluster ace Hamels. Harang is our real current ace. lol. Love to see angry Howard hit two off Cosart but that old Howard is always lurking.

 

[jvett77]

In this second game of the series, Asche sends one to the seats in right with a nice quick easy swing to tie it 1-1.

 

[jvett77]

Howard and Utley, looking like Mutt and Jeff, miss an easy pop fly down the right field foul line. Sizemore saves the day with a difficult stumbling catch near the right field wall. Shaky inning but still 1-1after 5.

 

[jvett77]

Revere hits a gapper for 2nd triple in two nights. Same location. Utley up in the 6th 2 out.
