Phillies Cards Gamethread--Sunday.

[Retroram52]

Garcia gets 'em 1-2-3.

 

[Retroram52]

One more run for the Phils for a TD and extra point.

 

[Retroram52]

Blanco nails a 3-run bomb to right field. We have a TD, extra point, and a safety. Phils up 9-1!

 

[Retroram52]

There is still one more out in this side and Galvis is up.

 

[Retroram52]

Blanco hit that ball to the 400' mark. Yikes!

 

[jvett77]

Maybe platoon Cesar and Blanco at 2nd and give Chase needed bench rest for a few weeks or months.

 

[Retroram52]

Giles is in. Nice grab by Rupp.

I like that idea ALOT, jvett.

 

[Retroram52]

Giles threw some heat. 1-2-3 for the side.

 

[jvett77]

I hope we can do this against the Yankees the next 3 days as my dreaming goes. Morgan even managed to tame Grichuk today.

 

[Retroram52]

Franco is taking some big swipes at the ball.

I agree jvett. Morgan may be a new pitcher that turns out to be a good one.

 

[Retroram52]

On to the 9th we go.

 

[Cedrique]

I wonder what Giles could bring in a trade? I think he could be one of the better closers in the league, which is kind of an unnecessary position on the Phillies right now and probably for another year or 2. Maybe after Papelbon and Chapman are gone go to the team that lost out on them and say "we've got an even better deal , but it is going to cost you"

 

[Retroram52]

Heyward goes deep for a homer. Geez.

 

[BrockForBroglio]

Congrats Phillies....Wacha was gawd awful today. Leaving pitches up all day and your guys didn't miss them.

 

[Retroram52]

Freakin' Papelbon serves up the homer to Heyward.

 

[Cedrique]

I agree jvett. Morgan may be a new pitcher that turns out to be a good one.

I don't know about that Retro, I think I'm going to use your "blind squirrel" theory on Morgan's success today. But you ever know.....

 

[Retroram52]

Pretty darn good win for Morgan. On we go to the Yanks. Let's see if this momentum continues or fades as fast as it arrived.

 

[Retroram52]

That's fair. Everything about this team is a wait-and-see proposition.
