Marlins @ The Phillies Game Thread Series

[Retroram52]

Nice play by Franco on that bunt.

What has gotten into KK? Gets Yelich on a cutter and we get out of another side with no run damage.

October is the only month when all four major professional sports are active and college football is really cookin'. Yea that ban lifted on PSU is good news. PSU is one of my alma maters and I was there when the Sandusky crap was going down. It is time for PSU to get out from the shadow of Paterno and establish a new winning identity.

I like alot of these young Phils. Asche last night with the walk-off homer and this Franco is a legit. If they would play Ruf more, we'd have infielders that match the talent level of our young-stud bullpen. The Phils should also be playing Rupp as well.

Hey, fellow Nittany Lion! It's hard to believe all the crap that happened and that Paterno's statue was removed from the campus. Well, as least they can move on now. I was at PSU when that other Franco (Harris) was running rampant and Joe was god. Those were the days.

Yeah, it is exciting watching the younger Phils display their talent. They'll just have fight their way into the lineup and hope the front office can eat some cash and swallow their pride.

That's the first walk of the night of KK. We need a double play here or we are going to lose the lead.

I saw you posted on the PSU page as well and when they rid the campus of all of the memorabilia of Paterno, the climate changed. Unfortunately the $75 million dollar Paterno graduate library is a little difficult to cart off. I spent many a day in that library and Paterno put up the money out of his own pocket. Tells you just how rich the old codger was.

 

[Retroram52]

Kendricks gets the K to save is ass.

 

[Retroram52]

That fly out to Ruf gets us out of the side with KK pitching around the Marlins.

 

[jvett77]

I like this home plate ump.

 

[Retroram52]

Another base hit by Revere. 2 for 2 tonight. Come on Franco!!

 

[Retroram52]

Yikes! Big swipe by Franco.

 

[Retroram52]

Franco moves Revere over to second and Utley is up. Can we get another run?

 

[Retroram52]

Except for Byrd, more and more the old guys are going ofer while the youngs are hitting.

 

[Retroram52]

Mathis takes a wild pitch and Revere moves on up to third.

 

[Retroram52]

Frikin Utlety is still ofer.

 

[Retroram52]

Damn it, that sucked.

 

[Retroram52]

The Phils need to fire up the bullpen. KK is not very good when he gets tired and he can't get out of jam like Hamels. Two on and nobody out is a disaster in the waiting.

 

[jvett77]

2 on and no outs for marlins. You can only get out of so many jams.

 

[Retroram52]

Good. KK is done at the right time.

 

[Retroram52]

Diekman is in.

 

[Retroram52]

Diekman served up a line drive and Byrd with that throw saved us. Now that was a throw by Byrd and Nieves made the tag!!
