Yep jvett. Looks like we made a late run but fell short. Snaps our three-game winning streak. Tomorrow we go.

The play by play is all yours. I'm headed to CBP tonite to see Hamels one more time before the Yankees buy his contract. Looks like both the Eagles and the Rams couldn't eek out wins last nite.

 

[Retroram52]

Yep. We missed a last-second field goal that could have won it. Enjoy Hamels and the Manuel celebration jvett.

Charlie Manuel gets inducted into the Ring of Fame!

 

[Retroram52]

A lot of people have arrived for the festivities. I hope the Phillies win the game.

 

[Retroram52]

Oh, it looks like the ring is really a wall at CBP.

 

[Retroram52]

Nice throw by Asche as he continues to get better at third.

 

[Retroram52]

Thta was a helluva a throw by Ruiz to third to get that out.

 

[Retroram52]

Hamels is pitching a shutout going into the fifth. WE haven't scored a run either.

 

[Retroram52]

Revere missjudged that ball and he didn't get the necessary jump on it and missed catching the fly.

 

[Retroram52]

Now Ruiz lost the handle on the fastball and the runner moves up.

 

[Retroram52]

Hamels walks the second batter and he is in trouble this side.

 

[Retroram52]

Now we have a problem. Frikin' Brown took a step back and then failed to get to that shallow fly ball and it dropped. The bases are juiced and no outs.

 

[Retroram52]

Nice play by Asche and he gets the throw to second to save a run. A run does score though. These guys have fallen asleep with all of the festivities. Hamels allows a run.

 

[Retroram52]

Ruiz catches the bunt and there are two outs. Perhaps we will get through this side with just one run.

 

[Retroram52]

Let's go Asche. We needs some runs.

 

[Retroram52]

Revere is ofer tonight. Batting .387 for August he needs to get going here.

 

[Retroram52]

We are working on seven innings without a run. This is typical this year for this offense.

 

[Retroram52]

That's Hamel's third walk tonight. This is not good.

 

[Retroram52]

Wright goes to third on that hit to center. The Mets have the runners on the corners. This is starting to suck.
