Game 1, Colorado at Philadelphia

[Benjamin Grimm]

Rockies still batting, and they've scored three in the second inning.

For the first time in a while, the Phillies are facing a good team.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Hamels threw almost 45 pitches in the second inning, that can't be good.

[metsmarathon]

define "good"

'cos i personally kinda like it.

[Frayed Knot]

Jeff Francis struck out the first 4 Phillies he faced.

[Guest holychicken]

I am way more excited for the playoffs than I thought I was going to be on Sunday night.

I wish I were at home.

[A Boy Named Seo]

That Sharp ad doesn't look sharp.

[Gwreck]

Gameday doesn't tell the whole story but in the top of the 7th, the Rockies left Jeff Francis in to hit with one out and a runner on 1st. Francis grounded out.

Then they pulled him and started the bottom of the 7th with LaTroy Hawkins pitching.

Strange.

[HahnSolo]

LaTroy Hawkins is alive and well?

Alive, at the very least.

4-2 Rockies, bottom 8.

[Zvon]

Phils and Phil phans look like robots going thru the motions.

[Valadius]

Oh my freaking God. Frank Caliendo is getting his own TV show.

This may be the best news I've heard in weeks!

[Valadius]

Rockies win!

[Zvon]

Utley was 0 fer with 4 ks?
Yowsers!

[Zvon]

I think the Phils are just beginning to wake up from their dream and they are like, YIKES! look where we are!

They haven't totally woke up yet though. They were sleepwalking today.

And on a total of just 13 pitches.

Utley & Howard = 0-8 w/7 Ks

Someday somebody';s going to give Colorado a little credit.

They hit. They field. And they can pitch a little.
