Phillies Pirates Gamethread--Sunday.

[Retroram52]

The side is done in the 7th and no runs.

 

[Retroram52]

Hamels is done. Still no runs.

 

[Retroram52]

Giles is in and they are replaying the yelling between Giles and Sandberg that went on in a previous game.

 

[Retroram52]

Revere finally gets on by beating the throw from Mercer. Francoeur is useless.

 

[Retroram52]

What in the hell is Francoeur chasing a dirt ball?

 

[Retroram52]

And then Revere overruns the third base and gets caught stealing third. He had the throw beat but did not getg down soon enough to make the steal successful.

 

[Retroram52]

Burnett has pitched 9 shut-out innings as we are done in the 9th.

 

[jvett77]

Geez, lardass can't come through to give the Phillies the go ahead run in the 9th in this 0-0 battle. Freakin' hopeless.

 

[Retroram52]

Winning run aboard in the 9th.

 

[Retroram52]

Geez, lardass can't come through to give the Phillies the go ahead run in the 9th in this 0-0 battle. Freakin' hopeless.

I thought the very same thing jvett.

 

[Retroram52]

Now the winning run is in scoring position with one out.

 

[Retroram52]

Two on with one out for Pissburgh in the bottom of the 9th.

 

[Retroram52]

Too funny. Pissburgh manager ejected for yelling at a bad call from the home plate umpire.

 

[Retroram52]

Alvarez is getting hosed.

 

[jvett77]

At least Hamels can't lose this, retro. He needs to go to a team that can score some runs.

 

[jvett77]

Dom bomb here? No he just feebly grounded out.

 

[Retroram52]

I agree jvett. Burnett appears to have experienced a rejuvenation after leaving the abyss of Philadelphia. Braindead's influence has totally destroyed the Phillies. It is now where players go to have the careers trashed.

 

[Retroram52]

We are in extra innings like Friday and Papelbon is warming up.

 

[Retroram52]

Revere goes to left, Herrera to center, and Papelbon is in.

 

[jvett77]

This looks like the end right here. Marte doubles with one out and they'll walk McCutcheon.
