                                Good job by Bruce.  At worst, the lineup turns over in the 9th I hope.

                        Yeah, I think the Phillies DO suck and the Angels HAVE sucked. Angels, SMH...incredible. Not sure the Phils are even a .500 team...Midstate01;1439848 wrote:Plus the phillies have sucked and angels have sucked

                                How has Craig Kimbrel been this year?
Ordinarily Id say this is the game. But I think he has been human this year, right?

                                You know what's funny?
Coming into the year, I was most worried about Votto's running.
He was always a very aggressive and underrated runner. Pretty athletic for a 1B. He's looked great running actually...just an observation.
