Phillies @ St. Louis 4-Game Series Thread

Velasquez, 3-4, 5.05 vs Weaver, 3-2, 4.91. Looks like a hitters night!

Vinnie has given up 8 bombs in his last 8 starts. Can Franco and Hoskins reach the seats off of righty Weaver? (Haven’t checked lineup).

 

[jvett77]

A freakin pitcher’s duel? Wtf. Good Vinnie is participating.

 

[jvett77]

Runner beat Franco’s throw after his brilliant stop at third, but it was great to see Santana quickly go off the bag to stop the errant throw, unlike some fantass 1b in the past who would stay glued to the bag while the runner easily took second. Bravo!

5th inning CF blast by Carlos. 1-0, Phils. 55 pitches for Vinnie first 4 innings. Not too shabby. Drink up!

 

[jvett77]

Phils escape Odubel-Hoskins misplay in the 7th.

 

[jvett77]

Looks like big 8th on the way for Phils. 2 on, no outs! Top lineup up.

 

[jvett77]

Garcia in with 4-0 lead in 8th. 2 on, no outs. We can't blow this with our first class BP.

 

[jvett77]

Morgan in with two on, two out, lead down to 4-2. And finally, a fly out. Just 3 more outs and this well pitched game is in the bag for Vinnie's 4th win.
What will Gabe do in the 9th?

 

[jvett77]

Florimon, 2-run homer. Great game plan! 6-2. Alfaro now up to .250. Knew he'd figure it out.

 

[jvett77]

A sweep in STL would not be far fetched.

We have won three-in-a-row and we may have just turned a corner for good. Maybe!

Arietta pitches tonight. GO PHILLIES winning streak!

Arietta pitches tonight. GO PHILLIES winning streak!

It really becomes more exciting when we see the second tier of SPs like Pivetta, Velasquez, and even Eflin, turn winners and we still have Cys like Arietta and Nola to do the expected.

Young pitching like this could lead us for years to come! GO PHILLIES!

It’s Play Ball, mo fo’s!

Christ, Arietta’s gonna jack us all off. Even Vinnie got the first two guys out.
