Mets vs Phillies Thread

[jvett77]

First of four at the Mets. Porcello vs Arietta, two high ERA guys. In the bag! Go Phils!

Jake pitching solid in 3 innings so far. He seems to be focused. Amazing Phillies lineup will get more runs soon. Harper gets the day off. Bruce is the backup. This team is loaded!

We are all tied-up with the Mutts in the middle of the seventh. This should be a win for the Phils as the Mutts are a complete dumpster fire at the moment.

Ball is bouncing the Phillies way. 3-2 Phils.

 

[Retroram52]

One of things the Phillies are learning under Girardi is playing a full game. The famous Phillies fade at about inning 6-9 seems to be slowly changing and one of the guys who appears to be on-board with this is Bryce.

 

[Retroram52]

Jake Arrieta retires the side in the seventh inning and goes over 100 pitches in a start for the first time since June 11, 2019. It has been awhile but things are developing ever-so quietly.

 

[Retroram52]

Gregorius singled to shallow right, Hoskins goes to second. Gregorius has been a great addition to the Phillies.

 

[Retroram52]

Nice inning for the Phils. Segura reached on an infield single to shortstop, Hoskins scored, Gregorius to third, Segura to second on 1st baseman Smith fielding error.

 

[Retroram52]

A missed catch error results in a Phillies insurance run. A bases-loaded HBP forces in another. Nice additions to the offense and we have a great 8th inning.

The Phillies have changed their hitting approach since last year. They simply put the ball in play now. Let the chips fall and something happens! Simple, but it works!

 

[jvett77]

We forgot about Hector.

 

[jvett77]

Wow! Hoskins saves the game with a line drive catch and Girardi puts in Hunter to close down the Mutts in the 8th.

 

[jvett77]

Workman really knows what the fuck he's doing. Phils win 10 of 11 for first time since 2011!

 

[Retroram52]

Nice win!! Onward we go.

Well northeast, you have been screamin for putting the ball in play for nearly a decade and it appears Joe is teaching that simple concept to these Phils!!

Joe knows baseball!

The dildoes may never return under Joe.

Is that their first win without hitting a HR???

Not sure. But is nice to know we can hit and scrape for runs just the same!

Hoskins is hot. 1-0.
