Phillies Dodgers Gamethread Tuesday.

[northeastphillyguy]

Billingsley VS Anderson. Anderson is solid, Billingsley is not. Dodgers are heavy favorites. Ruf is batting cleanup and Frenchy 5th. However for some strange reason Brown is also starting instead of Herrera, or Asche. Go figure!

 

[Retroram52]

Won't see this one. Have to work tomorrow.

 

[jvett77]

We need to see if Brown has even an ounce of his former untouchable self left at the plate.

 

[jvett77]

It would be awfully nice if Ruf would have a big, all-around game, like a homer double, 3 RBIs.

 

[jvett77]

Ruf walks in the first with Revere at 2nd after a single and SB. Francoeur safe at first on a hard grounder to third but throw pulls the 1b off the bag.

 

[jvett77]

Galvis singles to drive in a run. 1-0 Phils. Brown up. bases loaded. 2 outs.

 

[Omar 382]

Well that's what you call station-to-station baseball

 

[jvett77]

Brown strikes out. Send him down.

 

[jvett77]

Brown makes a great throw to third to get Grandel on the single to right. That's two good throws by Brown.

 

[jvett77]

Billingsley leaves runners on 2nd and 3rd. Still 1-0 Phils. On to the 3rd.

 

[jvett77]

Franco walks, Ruf singles to right. Franco agressively takes third then Ruf makes it to second on the throw to third. Frenchy up.

 

[jvett77]

Francoeur drives 2 run double to left center, 3-0 Phils in the 3rd. 0 outs. Galvis up.

 

[jvett77]

Galvis grounds to 1st. Francoeur to third. Brown grounds to 1st allowing Francoeur to score. 4-0 Phils in the 3rd.

 

[jvett77]

End of the 5th. Chad has a 4-hit shutout.

 

[jvett77]

Phils have brown and Rupp at the corners. Billingsley up. He bunts but Rupp is out at 2nd.

 

[jvett77]

Hernandez up. 1 out. He walks and they're loaded for Revere..

 

[jvett77]

Revere singles up the middle. 2 more runs in. 6-0 Phils. 2 on, 1 out in the 6th. Franco up.

 

[jvett77]

Franco strikes out on the high fastball. Ruf is up.
