Church is said to have had a migraine headache last night, not related to his head injury.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Endy Chavez, last 28 days: a completely respectable .316 BA, .365 OBP. (Nevermind that .407 BABIP over the last week)

[Zvon]

Chavez singles in the 1st.
Wright and Beltran can't bring him around.

[Zvon]

Lead off walk for Werth.
Hopefully not an indicator of how Perez will pitch today.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Ollie gives up a leadoff walk ahead of the big bats. Don't worry- that never comes back to hurt you.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Utley misses a big fat fastball up in the zone in a hitter's count.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Dammit! Delgado apparently glued up his glove before the game.

[Zvon]

That pop up to Wright was interesting.
Looks like David was a lil miffed Reyes didn't move off.

I saw Reyes jawin him and looks like Wright was ignoring him.
Left Reyes shaking his head.

Perez picks off Werth but Delgado can't execute the throw to 2nd in a timely manner.

J-Roll follows with an infield hit off Perez's leg.

1st and 3rd.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Ryan Howard vs LHP, 2008: .188/.248/.361 Yikes.

[Guest AG/DC]

Enough with BABiP.

Unless we're gong to give equal respect to batting average discharged against batters in night games, the all-important BADABiNG statistic.

--- a message from MASaTO.

BIG K of Howard.

Thats the 120th time he's wiffed this season.

That and his .223 average makes his league leading 76 RBI amazing to me.


And Burrell pops out foul to 1st!
WOOT!

[Guest AG/DC]

The glue comes in handy there.

Thirty pitches, no runs. I'll have to talke it.

That's a really startling stat. He's on pace for 218 K's this season. Wow. These power guys just don't care about striking out, do they?

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Easley is playing like he's on fire, NBA Jam style.

[Guest AG/DC]

Tom McCarthy, roving reporter with the Phils.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Thank you for the pop-up, Ollie. I foresaw a DP there, vividly.

[Zvon]

I thought Easley was gonna score on that for sure.
Grrrr.

[bmfc1]

Shoulda sent him with the pitcher on deck.

Easley would have been meat at the plate if sent (IMHO of course)

[Zvon]

OMG!

Anderson called it, got under it, DIDN'T CATCH IT!

Even Burrell doesn't do that!

[bmfc1]

Either the moron Phillies fans are chanting "Ollie" or they are saluting the popular movie "Wall-E."

[Zvon]

OMG!

WHAT A CATCH BY ENDY!

[bmfc1]

Marlon should be even more embarrassed after seeing Endy make that play.

[Guest AG/DC]

We need an OMG! sub-forum.

Phillies have a seperate OoTSB for their minor league affiliates.

OMG!

What a great idea!

K, I'll stop.

(i did actually say that to the screen for Marlons error)

[Zvon]

Another shittilly inconsistent home plate ump.

[Zvon]

[bmfc1]

Wagner made the All-Star team.

And that's it. No Wright. No Reyes.
