Pitching isn’t the problem when you only score one run. The O will wake up tomorrow. 

I wouldn’t be so sure about that. 2 times in the last 4 games the offense no showed. And really one game they won they relied heavily on HR and wheeler. Which you aren’t getting wheeler and who knows if we hit hrs cause 2 of the last 4 games they haven’t and have had just 4 in 4 games. Why relying solely on HRs is a recipe for disaster.

The offense made a habit of being no shows all season long. Whether this one is an extended on or not is yet to be seen. I will be shocked if the team is this flat tomorrow. If they are, we deserve to go home.

I kind of think they are done. The thing you had was the invincibility of this ballpark and the crowd behind you. Had won 13 in a row here and now you are gonna get a tense crowd that’s likely expecting the worse to happen. So you are gonna like see a tight team. I compare it to 2011 and 2010 vs. cardinals and giants at home. Team just hit upright and couldn’t get anything going and the nervous energy spewed over and they lost. Tbh I’d be surprised if this team scores more than 2 tomorrow. Maybe I’m not far enough removed with my emotions but i just seen this story play out before. 

I don’t know how a team with a chance to clinch a World Series spot can come out flat, but we did it. Did they have Jalen Hurts give the pregame pep talk?  Harper and Turner should be ashamed of themselves. They looked awful at the plate.

This series is over.  Nobody to blame but themselves after blowing games 3 and 4

Lol

 

that sucked. these freakin' Philly teams can never make it easy for us

 

Looks like Texas will win their first world series

If they have to resort to Wheeler the game is most likely lost

Depends i think you are likely seeing Ranger for 3-4. Wheeler for 2. Hoffman for 2. Alvarado for 2 (amazing he hasn’t pitched since Friday night). This is gonna come down to the offense tbh. If they don’t score 5 or more i think they are in trouble. The dbacks main bullpen guys ginkel and seawald have shut the Phillies down. So you are gonna have to hit Pfaadt and whatever other reliever prior.

F Thomson

 He is the problem. He did the same thing last year and didn't protect Harper. Fire him.

No and Robby T is like cool

Really curious what people on here think is considered a close game? Cause I got into a discussion with somebody on Twitter that the tying run in a 2 run game coming to the plate with one out and Craig Kimbrel on the mound is a close game. Was told that wasn’t cause win percentage all game had the Phillies around 80-90 percent.  

Nola..... at the end of this run ? Pack your stuff and say goodbye because after the look Harper gave you for not even trying to cover 1st base.....

you ain't coming back. 

he was mentally taking himself right out of the game.....like so many other times....... that little extra effort he gave after his meltdown was pure luck...... or Harper threatened to kill him.

The manager can go with him. They have a blueprint that has beaten them 3 out of 4 games and he says do it again just like Houston. It is Fing stupid. Swap Bohm and Marsh....do something. 

7th games are always fickle and anything can happen. Just come in relaxed and focused and take your cuts at the plate. Keep scratching at all times. 

This Philly fan is like did you expect anything other than having a game 7?   Ugh.  Every single time.  It's like ground hog day. Everyday is game 7 day.

We got this. Love the approach, keep the entire bullpen loose for the next series by going 7 games in this one. Daycare comes through tonight.

Sloth hasn’t aged a bit. 

I couldn't even sleep. You know what is coming and you have to watch just gor your heart to get ripped out more....and it happened in a way that will leave you wondering what if for a very long time. What if the manager didn't sink his team Friday and blow a gsme being stupid. What if he swapped Marsh to 4th or anything else to break up Bohm and Stott and not take his best player out of the game being stubborn. He won't see a good pitch all night. Turner will swing first pitch. We will have hope Nick will come back but he ran out of juice and will fan the pitchers with his bat all night. It's going to be a game 2 or 6 again from last year. Few hits, runners left on when they do, another team celebrating on our field. 

They aren't just losing they are doing it ugly and painfully. They should have won but Robby T took it from us. Yes, players have to do their jobs, but you don't put in people that shaky and have absolutely no feel for the game. Managers shouldn't hurt their teams including leaving your star in a crappy spot just because. It didn't work last year and he doesn't freaking learn.

Anyone with a small baseball IQ knows a small move in the lineup has to be made, but nope. 3 hours of pain is coming. Another few months of randomly feeling sick over it is coming. People wonder why I'm negative. I love these teams and they always let us freaking down.

yep. they all do it.
