Phillies @ The Angels- Series Thread

[Retroram52]

Brown hits a fly for an out and that is 6 runners we have left stranded.

 

[Retroram52]

Burnett seems to be ahead this time as he is still in the 30's in pitch count here in the third.

 

[Retroram52]

Burnett has retired six-in-a-row so he is doing way better than I have seen pitch in awhile.

 

[Retroram52]

JRol's RBI gets Ruiz home and we go ahead by a run.

 

[Retroram52]

Hamilton draws the walk from Burnett. This is not good.

 

[Retroram52]

We got out of that inning with no damage.

 

[Retroram52]

The innings coming up after Sandberg took out Williams last night are the innings where we got killed with Retardo.

 

[Retroram52]

One out walk is another bad move. As we get to the late innings with Burnett, walking somebody becomes more problematic.

 

[Retroram52]

Back-to-back Ks by Burnett and we still have the lead.

 

[Retroram52]

The Angels have two on and one out. This is not looking good for Burnett.

 

[Retroram52]

Now Burnett is in trouble and walks the batter and the bases are juiced with one out. And this is just with 80 pitches thrown.

Look like AJ has a real problem here with them loaded in. the 6th.

 

[Retroram52]

That figures. A short bloop hit to the right field line and Sizemore can't get there and two runs score. 3-2 Angels. You could see this coming.

 

[jvett77]

I'm sure we won't have to watch this next year. But AJ was worth a shot.

 

[Retroram52]

Aybar scores, Howard screws up in the throw to Rollins and we only get one out. This is when we got killed last night. Angels up 4-2.

 

[Retroram52]

I sure hope so jvett. This happened last night in this very inning when they took Williams out and brought in Retardo. What the hell. This is so bad its getting predictable.

 

[Retroram52]

The Phillies are warming up DeFratus who may or may not do well.

 

[Retroram52]

That's ten runs we have given up in the sixth inning of this two-game series. Ten freakin' runs!! This isn't baseball. This is a bunch of knuckleheads showing up for a paycheck and that is it!

 

[jvett77]

Retro, in dire circumstances, I think teams should be allowed to make emergency pre-September callups with an expanded roster.

 

[Retroram52]

Revere is on with his second base hit.
