That entire inning by the Phillies was the definition of chase rate. 13 pitches that would’ve been outside the strike zone. Phillies swung at 7 of them. 

Haven’t scored a run in 13 consecutive innings. Not much better but they have 2 hits over that time.

finally get another hit and Rojas gets picked off. Hadn’t had a base running blunder in a while and Turner gets thrown out. 2 in one inning. Impressive. 

Absolutely putrid baserunning there - it’s like we’re trying to lose 

And maybe schwarber should try keeping two hands on the effing bat

Tbh we hadn’t had a base running blunder in like a week and a half. So we were definitely due lol 

Marsh has a chance to bring home JT. This is how it went 

 

This offense is painfull to watch

 

We did it. We scored a run for the first time in 17 innings. Bust out the champagne!!!

 

thank you Castellanos. 

1-2-3 by strahm.  Thank you 

Wasn't the best but a win is a win on this stretch

How dare you not panic like most of my friends are. It’s irrational to not have huge sways of emotion throughout the season. Y’know, moments of euphoria followed soon after by moments of despair. That’s how normal folks think. 

The irony of all this is that very few of the folks who post here were alive when Dick (nee Richie) Allen was the Phillies star player.

Phillies have Nola going. Twins going with okert to start but into festa who was just called back up. The Phillies should be able to score runs on festa. This is a favorable matchup  

 

Going 3-3 on the roadtrip would be a great start to this stretch. 4-2 at home will be tough but doable and then 5-5 during the big roadtrip to end 12-10.

I'd take it, especially because the Braves are in a free fall due to all of their injuries.....

My first year of being a baseball (Phillies) fan was Allen’s last year. I remember him playing first base and writing things in the dirt with his shoes. That seemed to be the big story that year. The team was terrible of course, but he was fun to watch.

Also right when I started to be able to watch the game and follow along.  Dad took me to Connie Mack for a couple of games.  I remember Richie being my favorite along with a young Hisle.

I can still hear my best friend’s dad coming outside one afternoon to tell us that Hisle "just hit one over the roof!”
