Game Thread: Memorial Day COL @ PHI

[Omar 382]

I have a tear in my eye. Damnit, I fucking love you America!!!

 

[Omar 382]

This lineup is lethal. Thank God we're in Philly and not Coors Field

 

[Retroram52]

Yep Number one, this could be a rough one.

 

[jvett77]

Wait, with Ryan flying around the bases, could he lead off?

 

[Omar 382]

Does Rosario have oven mitts on behind the plate?

 

[Omar 382]

What the hell was that Kendrick

 

[Omar 382]

Send Ruiz here

 

[Omar 382]

Yes sir great hustle all around

 

[Retroram52]

Nice 4-run cushion after 7. Can we go for the no-hitter.

 

[jvett77]

The Phillies today began their drive on first place. I'm almost very sure of it.

 

[Retroram52]

Yep. We left the cellar and moved up one spot above the Mets.

 

[jvett77]

Think about Howard staying hot like he was yesterday. For more than a day. It's like a dream. If that came to be, the Phillies could sweep the Rockies and then have some momentum going into the 5-game Mets series. With the 3 hits yesterday, Howard is .471 vs. Rockies pitching, and get this, he's 8 for 18 or .444 against the Mets' staff. Maybe this is good timing. I'm hyped.

 

[jvett77]

Prediction: Ruf will hit a game winning homer or Howard will do it as a pinch hitter. It just floated by.

 

[Retroram52]

1-1 tie going into the 7th. I think you might be right jvett.

 

[jvett77]

Maybe I had the wrong game.

 

[jvett77]

Revere shows his hidden power stroke!

 

[Retroram52]

What the hell happened? It was a 1-1 tie. I go and eat dinner, come back and it is a 6-2 beatdown. Jeez. So much for that explosive offense. Must of been the rain delay.

 

[jvett77]

Hamels had a letdown in the 7th, giving up a 3-run blast to catcher Rosario. Then Manshit did his part. Then there's the law that says if the Phillies are losing in the 8th inning, they can't come back. Now we're tied for the basement.

Funny stuff!

 

[Retroram52]

Yep, just like that jvett. Right back in the cellar.
