Phillies-Brewers Game Thread

couldn't even bring Braun in to PH, he's unavailable. but we did need Weeks and wow, K-Rod really needs work. June 28th was his last appearance

 

[jvett77]

One more run would be nice.

 

[Retroram52]

Another base hit by Utely.

 

[jvett77]

Nail it down, Pape!

Freakin' Howard chasing cutters in the dirt. Papelbon comes in for the save.

 

[Retroram52]

Wow, Papelbon joins the Rivera club. I hope they don't trade him

 

[jvett77]

Amazing the results when your 6 and 7 hitters produce for a change.

 

[jvett77]

In the freakin' bag!

 

[Retroram52]

Who'd have thunk this. Papelbon gets his 21st save and we take the first two of this series. Onward we go tomorrow night for game three.

Simple stuff jvett. If we just do the simple things well like having what you suggested and just putting the ball in play consistently has dramatic results.

Let's hope they have some momentum with a few extra guys maybe finding a groove.

 

[dyhard]

well, I'm not really surprised. I'm looking forward to tomorrow's game, though. Brewers are really set up for a victory with Lohse pitching

 

[Retroram52]

I agree dyhard. We shall see how that one goes.

He's got a 1.72 ERA vs Phl in the last 3 years. Ah, we'll kick his butt anyway.

I hope one of them is Rollins.

Franco is on a 13 for 28 tear. Let's bring him up and give Ryan a vacation.

 

[Retroram52]

I agree jvett. The young guys just need to start playing more. From Asche, to Blanco, to our bullpen, to Rupp and a guy like Franco. If they keep working with Gwynn, he may even come around. I realize he is playing with a very heavy heart since the death of his dad so he gets a bit of a pass. I think ie would behoove us to continue down that path.

 

[jvett77]

Phillies need to get to RH Lohse tonight.

 

[jvett77]

Nice homer, Chase!

 

[Retroram52]

Lohse is coming hard after the batters but the batters are making him work especially Rollins. And there Utely nails a Homer in the first. We are up already!!
