Arietta vs Borucki. Jays ahead of the Phils 3-1 in the 5th.

Not looking good for Jake.

 

[Taddy Mason]

nice weather outside.

24-year old Cy showing Jake and Phils how it’s done.

Kingery goes boom! He has two hits today.

his bat has looked pretty nice today. i was on board with the decision to have him try for home in the 2nd, until i realized they're in an AL stadium and Jake wasn't up next.

also, Neris has looked pretty good on his recent call up.

silver linings.

I see Phils retaking the lead in the next two innings. A .453 team can’t have good relievers.

Forgot to mention that 9-11 August teams really suck the big ones all day.

 

[Taddy Mason]

this guy takes too many 3rd strike calls late in the game.

braves losing by 1 going into their last chance with 2-3-4 due up. meh.

 

[jvett77]

Hoskins should work on his hitting instead of his clubhouse leadership crap the guys in the booth are always yapping about.

 

[jvett77]

Loss to a kid and his .450 team tonight.

 

[SU Nittany Tide]

Ugh. Ball strike three ends the game with two on.

ump was calling it a bit off the plate most of the night. have to protect.

and the marlins win. duvall almost tied it up, but was about two feet too short.

 

[jvett77]

We pay three hired hands to help the offense in the second half, and one has the nerve to go on the disabled list, and another hits .205 in his first month.

Yep. Ramos had been very good in a small sample size.

 

[northeastphillyguy]

So frustrating to watch this team flounder.

 

[Retroram52]

We lose in this series with the Jays and the Bitches got beat by the Fish. I don't know when this team is going to get out of being the dildoes and get on with Flex's prediction!

 

[jvett77]

Pivetta vs Sanchieze today.

3 LOB in first two innings. Phillies must think they get extra pay for getting on base then walking back to the dugout. The lineup’s gotta be all wrong.

 

[jvett77]

5-0 in the 4th. Should be in the bag if Pivetta can stick around two more innings.
