Castellanos got a great jump on that ball. So they weren’t even gonna try to get them at home. was no way they were going to get them. At that point once you saw a profar got to it fast and no chance at home the only play was to second. Didn’t help stott took a really wide turn from first. 

Hand’s job is to lay off the balls here.

Did they ever mention if Nola was available for an inning?  Today was his bullpen session

Next two innings are big. Gonna get Suarez and hader for at least 8th and 9th. And we didn’t look good against Martinez and Suarez and hader are better than Martinez.

not sure why we took out bellatti. only had 9 pitches. Hand is lucky they called that 3-1 pitch a strike. It wasn’t

Phillies Postgame show on the radio discussed it’s a possibility. I doubt it unless we are ahead 

Why not Syndegard here?

I'd only use Nola if it's the 9th and we are up 16-15.

Yep.  In a game with pitching in short supply, why take someone out after 9 pitches when they had been OK?

Hand is lucky that he hasn't walked 2 on already.

F'ing a-holes

 

I suspect they switched to Hand so that a lefty could pitch to Soto.

Saw that Soto bomb coming.  Kept leaving that sad excuse for a breaking ball over the plate.  That's game 

Brand hand should not be in this game, Thomson has cost this team, horrible use of staff

Because they are idiots

In defense of Thomson, we've had a few pitchers in this game that should not be in this game.  At that point, it's a staff issue.

Great inning from Hand.  

Thomson lost this game. The lefty combo losers of Falter and Hand are nothing short of a disaster. For some reason Belatti was taken out after a whopping 9 pitches and who does he go to? The junk ball throwing Brad Hand. 

Nice of Hand to give the lead right back after the Phils clawed their way back in

There is no excuse for Hand over Syndegard, this game is most likely over because of it

The more I think about it, you guys are probably right.  This was always going to be a high scoring game due to pitching staff issues, but handling it differently probably could have shaved 2-3 runs off the board from what we are seeing right now.

Nah, he chose to pitch Falter instead of Syndergaard. He chose to take Belatti out after 9 pitches and went with a worse pitcher. Those are decisions he is in control of.

What makes the hand decision worse is 2 out of the 3 batters he was going to see were right handers. The first two batters were. 4 of the 5 hitters he faced were righty. The one batter that you brought him into this game specifically for was soto and he went yard on him. They should’ve went with the bellatti for the first two batters and then brought in hand specifically for Soto if you wanted him to match up against him because he’s a lefty. Which frankly hand has been terrible in this series 

It would actually be agonizing if Thor came in dealing.  I don't think he will, but that would hurt more.

yep

Game over. The offense isn't going to bring them back. 

 

It's not a nationally televised Philly sporting event without clips of people making cheese steaks.
