Phillies Rockies-gamethread-Friday.

Hamels vs Bettis. Phils are favored in this one. (Can't say that too often!) Asche is back and will play left field tonight. Go Phillies!

 

[Retroram52]

Down 2 runs early.

 

[Retroram52]

Still down 2 in the seventh. Geez, Hamels looks like he needs dowsed with cold water.

 

[Retroram52]

Our offense has done nothing for 7 innings. Nothing. I guess they are waiting for the 8th again.

 

[Retroram52]

Revere is on. Is this not the same Rockies we took 3 out of 4 in Colorado. Geez.

 

[Retroram52]

Nice hit by Galvis but robbed by Blackmon.

 

[Retroram52]

Utley advances Revere and Howard is up.

 

[Retroram52]

Bettis is still pushing a no-hitter and our offense continues to sputter.

 

[Retroram52]

Hamels is over the century mark in pitches and still hammering away. Interesting that Hamels still out there.

 

[Retroram52]

Asche is playing tonight. Good to see him back.

 

[Retroram52]

Hamels is getting tired. He is throwing balls into the dirt.

 

[Retroram52]

Hamels goes 8 innings, five hits, 2 runs. Apparently he is done for the night.

 

[Retroram52]

Bettis gets another strike-out. Five outs away from a victory for the Rockies.

 

[Retroram52]

Asche returns with a vengence by breaking up Bettis' no-hitter. Bettis gets Herrera whiffing.

 

[Retroram52]

Ruiz bloops one into right and it drops. We have two one and Ruf is up.

 

[jvett77]

I thought that guy Cy Sydergaard was excellent. Cy Bettis has been awesome.

 

[jvett77]

Ruf just got screwed on that call - Kd on a no swing. Idiot umpire.

 

[Retroram52]

This one is rapidly getting away from Garcia. He walks another one.

 

[jvett77]

You were right about that, retro.

 

[Retroram52]

Two-run opposite field home-run after Sandberg gets tossed. Same call they did Ruf went against Ruf and for the Colorado batter. That got Sandberg tossed and now this. This one is done. What a joke this club is.
