Phillies will win every game Velazquez does not pitch in.

Has anyone ever struck out 3 batters in one inning and then walked 4 the next?

That has to be rare.....

I might be in the minority, but I hate these matinee uniforms.  Give me the red pine stripes.  These are over played.   

I wish they’d just use powder blue throwbacks for matinee games. That’s the best uniform they got.

Forget the 6th, he might not even make it out of the 4th

At least tomorrow is an off day to rest some bullpen guys.

They just tore through two NL WS favorites (after the Dodgers).

Get to play them again on the road for the next 7.

Braves series will be interesting. Looks like braves remembered how to hit during the nationals series. Would be super encouraging if the phillies come out and take 2 out of 3 in atlanta.

I’d be pretty happy if we could go 4-3 in the next 7 against the Braves and Mets on the road. They do better I’d be ecstatic.

hopefully, we will see some more of yesterday from the phillies bats. 

 

also, i know nola didnt have his best stuff yesterday, but that sequence to end the 4th inning to me was a great sign. it initially looked like nola and jt couldnt get on the same page, but i think they knew that conforno was getting tipped off on the signs and the two got it worked out with the mound visit.

 

no sign, nice pitch. inning over. out of a bases loaded jam.

The Phillies always play the Braves tough - the true sign will be the first Marlins series.  They haven't been able to beat those losers for years now, for some reason.

I put a few fun bets in for the season. 

I'm actually really liking that Wheeler +3500 Cy Young bet.... Might put more on it.

I’d have taken the over on phillies wins this year. I saw some places had 80.5. I thought they’d get to 84-86 even with the negative thoughts about completing a decade of .500 or below

Wheeler and Morton in a good pitchers duel. Wheeler having some control issues though like Nola on Wednesday. With the amount of pitches he's thrown, hopefully he can make it through 6.

Acuna doing the Jose Bautista after hitting a 2 run homer in the 5th inning of game 7 of the season. Hope he gets plunked.

Girardi apparently didn't know the rule for the second mound visit for the same pitcher. He has to be taken out of the game. Wheeler got taken out with the count 2-0. Worked out though. Let's see if the bats can come alive.

Wrong bats came alive.

When Bohm flied out with runners on 1st and 3rd, I turned it off. Just not their day. This team needs to figure out how to win on the damn road though. They are like 65 games below .500 over the last 4 years on the road. They better figure it out quick.

I thought the same thing, what a ****. Just wish our bats came to play and made him look like an idiot afterwards
