Phillies Dodgers game thread Tuesday.

Williams VS Wood. This is the first start for Wood as a Dodger. Williams can run hot and cold. The Phillies
are about to start a new winning streak tonight. Franco is due for a homerun! GO PHILLIES!

I'm in Asheville NC now and then I'll be off to Augusta to see my cousin get married. So I don't have the games, but I will be watching MLB Network a lot.

I have an elderly aunt in a cloistered nunnery somewhere in Asheville. Please stop by and tell the bitch I said Hello.

 

[jvett77]

Let's go fans and fantards. Get behind the Fightens. Remember, 41-17 and we're back to .500.

 

[jvett77]

Two on and 1 out in the 2nd so Ruiz grounds into a DP. Still 0-0.

 

[jvett77]

Williams pitches out of a 2 on, 0 out jam in the 3rd that included a strikeout of Adrian Gonzalez on a breaking ball in the dirt. 0-0.

 

[jvett77]

Odubel hits a blistering double down the right field line to score Cesar who had singled. Franco is up. 1-0 Phils.

 

[jvett77]

Almost. Franco lines out to 3rd. Shit. Frenchy is up. 2 outs.

 

[jvett77]

Francoeur Ks but at least we score. 1-0 Phils end 3rd..

I was in Asheville last year and the downtown area was actually pretty interesting. A lot of hippie types mixed in with your traditional conservative southerners but they all seemed to get along. Plus it's in the mountains so the weather is not quite as bad as some places. Augusta on the other hand, I'm going to go out on a limb and say in the first week of August, it will be Fucking hot.

Austin, Tx, Athens, GA, and Ashville, NC are cool towns.

 

[jvett77]

Williams is losing it and Dodgers are about to bust it up. Bases loaded, 0 outs. Alex Guererro up.

 

[jvett77]

Williams gets out of it by striking out Guererro and getting Wood to hit into a DP. Fucken amazing.

Yes, if you like drinking beers outside (and really, who doesn't?) , all those places seem to have a lot of "festivals" and stuff going on.

Down on the farm, Nick Williams 1-3 and Jake Thompson 4.1 innings, 1 run so far in Reading

 

[jvett77]

Now, a 5th inning jam for Williams. 2 on, 1 out. Ethier singles and it's 1-1.

 

[jvett77]

Williams gets out of it with no further damage. How long can this go on.

These are college towns too. U GA, U. tx. Even Ashville has a UNC branch. Those guys are worth keeping an eye on.

Yep, Thompson still pitching in the 7th, just one run given up. Williams 2-4. Where is that catcher Alfaro going? Reading or LHV? Or is he injured still?

 

[Cedrique]

That Andrew Knapp kid they drafted a couple years ago is killing it in AA so far too. He's hitting .366 since he got there in about 30 games

 

[jvett77]

Alfaro is in Reading. Haven't heard anything else.
