Philadelphia at Arizona Monday Game Thread

[jvett77]

3rd inning. Harang is collapsing.

 

[Retroram52]

Frikin' Harang is useless as tits on a bull. Runners on the corners. 2 outs.

 

[Retroram52]

Why don't you throw another dirt ball Harang.

 

[Retroram52]

When they close the roof to this field, Chase Field is like a serious homer ballpark. Little wind resistance and the ball just takes off.

 

[Retroram52]

Brown walks because if he didn't, he was swinging at just about everything and was going to strike out.

 

[Retroram52]

C'mon Asche!

 

[Retroram52]

Swinging at sinker balls and Asche strikes out. Let's see if Galvis does something of note.

 

[Retroram52]

That figures.

 

[Retroram52]

That does it. I am not wasting anymore time watching this big stiff serve up home runs!

 

[jvett77]

Hail Cesar! RBI double to drive in Utley who had singled. 2-2.

 

[jvett77]

5-2 now in the 5th as Harang comes into his own, giving up some deep drives to center, the last a homer by Castillo.

 

[jvett77]

That does it. I am not wasting anymore time watching this big stiff serve up home runs!

No confidence in the Phils' vaunted comeback offense. lol.

 

[Davis_Mike]

The ball is flying tonight.

 

[jvett77]

Franco homer. See what I mean. 5-3.

 

[jvett77]

Asche doubles past Goldy.

 

[jvett77]

Old man carlos up with 2 outs, Asche on 2nd.

 

[jvett77]

Ruiz deep fly out to center.

 

[jvett77]

Franco's homer must have been 420 feet or more.

 

[jvett77]

I wonder what the electric bill is for Chase field when it's 100 outside and 78 inside.

 

[Davis_Mike]

Franco's homer must have been 420 feet or more.

It's 413 to the corners of the CF wall. It was well above that, so I would guess it went even further than that.
