see...KS did KSS the baseball with the Bat...Hard...really hard...!

[PhoenixRising]

Yeah, at first I wasn't sure that was gonna be a home run. That ball really hung up there a while.

That knocked the Pirates pitcher out of the game. Bullpen is up.

Hoskins grounds out, but the Phillies now lead 7-0. Wheeler is back up to pitch. He should be able to get to the 7th inning if he gets three quick outs here. He only has 60 pitches.

[Make Them Laugh]

OK...I am off for the evening...so glad we got to post for a few hours on both board
It looks like Phillies Got this one in the Bag
Have a good sleep and another GREAT day off tomorrow

[PhoenixRising]

Great double play by the Phillies! Wheeler had another quick inning. I don't know if he'll pitch the 7th or if they'll bring in the bullpen with a 7 run lead.

Okay, thanks for watching with me, Dave! And thanks for being at the Smallville watch! Will you watch the game tomorrow with me?

Thanks! You sleep well and have a great day tomorrow too! Goodnight!

[Make Them Laugh]

once again...Phillies Bullpen had an off night

[PhoenixRising]

No, just Jeurys Familia. It was 8-2 going into the 9th and the moron gave up five freaking runs. Our closer, Seranthony Dominguez, had to come in to get the save and the Phillies won 8-7, but it should never have been that close. Familia had better be gone at the trade deadline. I never want to see him in Philadelphia ever again.

[Make Them Laugh]

I hope the phiillies make a good trade

Oh...Big Ben is making first pitch for the game

[PhoenixRising]

Me too. We need another pitcher in the rotation and another one in the bullpen to replace Familia. Another guy who can bat and field would help too.


Yeah, I saw. It was nice to see Big Ben out there supporting the Pirates. He looks like he gained weight since January.


Schwarber hit a fly ball for one out, but Hoskins got a one out single. Alec Bohm is up. He's on a 13 game hitting streak.

[Make Them Laugh]

lets try hard to get at least one run again please

Not sure I'd want the last name of Baum

[PhoenixRising]

It's Bohm, Dave. What's wrong with that name?

Two outs and JT is up to bat.

[Make Them Laugh]

it seems like a name you can get teased about

side is retired... JT ground out

[PhoenixRising]

Great, on the very first pitch, Bailey Falter gives up a ground rule double. He threw a fast ball right over the plate.

This is the guy that they have to use while Zach Eflin is out with an injury, but Falter has never really shown any ability to be a good starter. They're always sending him back down to Triple A minor leagues.

[Make Them Laugh]

yea...that's crazy...first pitch results in lead off double....
When is Eflin coming back

he could have gotten the out at 3rd

[PhoenixRising]

Well, at least they got the next two batters out, but you're right, they should've gotten the guy at 3rd. Yario Munoz isn't that experienced at 2nd base.

I have no idea. His knee is still sore.

Falter got a called strike three! The Phillies got out of that inning with no damage done.


The score bug is still P0 0P.

[Make Them Laugh]

back to back strike outs no commercials...but I like commercials except for when watching movies

oh...I got ice cream at walmart instead of cheesecake...2 ladies were making me hungry for cheesecake on another board...not paying 7-8 bucks when I can get ice cream for 2.50
