We need to get somebody, either by call-up, trade, or FA to be inserted in the line-up near Asche because he is continually being stranded by these dunderheads that simply cannot hit.

 

[Retroram52]

De Fratus is now in.

 

[Retroram52]

Geez De Fratus, why don't you just hit the guy!

 

[Retroram52]

Well this looks like this one is done. I am going to check back in later but this team just sucks right now. How they can go from 5 straight wins to this garbage is beyond me.

Retro come back... you can blame it all on me

 

[northeastphillyguy]

The Phillies have 6 hits. Three by Asche and one by the pitcher. The other 7 guys have 2 hits. This team reminds me of the Phillies before the streak!

 

[Retroram52]

Why would I blame you WW? I had to eat my dinner and the way the Phillies were just stinking it up I decided to go eat. Looks like I made a good decision because the Marlins added two more runs. And now we are 7 away from .500 and the slide is continuing.

It sounds like some relief is in sight. On the pre-game report tonight, it was reported that .200 Grady Sizemore was signed and will go to LHV for some seasoning, and someone we've sorely missed lately, almost .200 Tony Gwynn junior will enter the mix again since he's been so successful all season. We should all be vomiting today as it's clear the Phillies are as lost as Dom Brown.

 

[Retroram52]

Speaking of lost. Utely is 2 for his last 22. I can do that!

 

[Retroram52]

Holy cow. Two on and one out and Howard is up.

 

[Retroram52]

That swing by Howard was so lame. I don't have words to describe that. Rollins steals home on an error. We are up early which is good sign.

 

[Retroram52]

Freakin' Howard has become really lame. One for four last night and he is krap again tonight.

 

[Retroram52]

MARLON BYRD!!!!! 2-run shot off the college pitcher!!! Phils up 3-0.

 

[Retroram52]

Beautiful HR by Byrd and Asche continues to hit the ball well.

 

[Retroram52]

Mayberry must be training with Howard. Chased another dirt ball.

 

[Retroram52]

Nice triple for Revere. Fourth one of the year.

 

[Retroram52]

Wild pitch and Revere scores. 4-1 Phillies. Rollins chases the same slider pitches that got Mayberry and Howard swinging.

 

[Retroram52]

Rollins gets back on by another walk.

 

[Retroram52]

Rollins steals another base. Sweet.

 

[Retroram52]

Ruiz flys out and the Phils get another run.
