Better late than never.
We'll see if it affects the 1-game streak!

Phew...that was a scary 8th.
Not sure what's going on with Marshall and Broxton...but they are nowhere near as "sure fire" as they have been.
Let's try to get a run, and then hopefully Chapman can slam the door.

Hopefully the jeopardy the Reds' lead was in during the bottom of the 8th will be the most of the game, and the 9th will have no baserunners and no longballs for the Phils! And maybe an insurance run or two in the top of the 9th.

Funny too.Tiger2003;1445091 wrote:Man this lineup is amazing.
Rollins, Utley and Howard were former top 3 players at their position.
Revere, Brown and Galvis were all highly touted prospects.
Delmon Young has been decent at the MLB level, and was once a super prospect.
Ruiz is a pretty good hitting catcher.
If anything, the Phils have some issues, but they SHOULD be hitting better than they are. 3rd worst in the NL in runs scored...

Squeezed on these pitches.
Ball 2 and 3 to Young, and ball 1 to Kratz were close.

Wow...erasing Lee from the basepath sure turned out to be big.
Fucking tie game now.

That was a bomb too. Seriously, the ONLY pitch people can hit off Chapman is the knee high FB. Terrible.

Yeah, I love Chapman but something else has to be done. He has a devastating slider and simply doesn't use it enough.
That's a season-changing win for the Phils. They got out-executed and out-played in the series, by a better team, and won the series.

Without the pick-off, Chapman would have only given up one key HR - the game winner! LeCure and Hoover currently look like the best Reds relievers.

12 of the 14 pitches were fastballs. Mostly 94-96 and hit 98 and 99 once each I think but couldn't control those. Have to get the slider going.

Yeah, Marshall looks shaky as hell. Broxton is solid, but always seems to get into trouble somehow, and is certainly overpaid for a setup role that both LeCure and Hoover seem to be capable of filling at 20% the cost.mhs95_06;1445117 wrote:Without the pick-off, Chapman would have only given up one key HR - the game winner!

Just throw the damn thing more, right? Seriously, some of the sliders guys swing at are not even close to the zone. The deception on the pitch makes it very difficult to get a great look at the location.Terry_Tate;1445120 wrote:12 of the 14 pitches were fastballs.
