Cairo leads off, and Pujols is on deck to pinch it. Lets get it over with...please.
-
Rollins fishes for a high pitch and strikes out to end the Phils 13th. The Cards at this point have a deeper bench, especially if you count Pujols. Philly has 2 non pitchers left. Cards have a hand full of players.

Valadius wrote: Mesa has a 6.11 ERA. Yea, but he gets through this inning nicely. See, this is why it is time for me to worry about these Phillies. Ive been watching them all season. I get like a hundred of their games on TV here. They just don't have the pitching. Last night kind of confirmed that. But a month ago, they do not hold that lead and they blow that game. And last night they managed to hold on and win. Yes, these are not the same Phils I've been watching all summer. Mostly due to the breaks they have been getting, and the fact they seemed to have stepped it up a notch. They have been hurtin pretty much all season too, like the Mets, and they have worked around it. Yea, they worry me. That said, I'd still rather face them than the Padres in a 7 game series.

Or has LaRussa just forgotten, All-Star-Game-style, that he has him available on the bench? http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3026358 Strained left calf muscle for Pujols. Wonder if he can pinch hit, or did he get an early shower with Ryan. Inquiring minds gots to know.

Mesa comes on for the Phils in the 12th. This is where it should get really interesting.

Valadius wrote: Myers was a longtime starter. Yes he was. I hate to say i may know the Phils team better than the Mets when it comes to things like that and the intangables. The Mets and have pretty much cut me off from the loop. I did contact my cable company and I can now get the WB 11. On channel 87-9, lol. Course at this point they have like 2 games left to show. Maybe only one . Howard Ks, and that guy who has been a ball on fire, Aaron Rowand is up.
-
Gets a grounder for out # 3. I think I,m the only one here, lol, but I'm sticking with this game and Ill continue to post. At least until I'm no longer Steve Trachsel.
-
Myers stays on for the Phils and strikes out the first two Cards in the 11th. How about that,...a closer that can go 2.
-
Bourn's swinging at anything close. Well, not anything...he avoids the inside pitches. Its a 2-2 count. And he lifts a shallow fly to center, and it continues.
-
Gotta hand it to those Cardinals fans. They are making some noise. Utley grounds hard to 2nd, easy out, Rollins moves over to third. They want to get Bourn and not face Howard here.
-
Rollins singles with one out and now Percival has to face the Phils heart, although at this point its: Utley Bourn Howard Rollins steals second.
-
Ankiel flies out to end the 10th. Its tied again. 4-4. Great baseball here.
-
wow. Eck pops out. Im thinkin this is over. Miles, who was batting .500 vs. Myers slaps a chopper over Phils 3rd basemans head. Then Cairo singles to right and its 1st and 3rd. AND THE CARDS GET THE SAC FLY AND TIE IT! That spazio Spiezio gets it done.
-
Izzy with a BIG K on Werth. I really think Stinnett should have had the throw, but the 2nd baseman Miles got the error. Izzy gets Ruiz to pop out and the Cards have get that run back. Izzys spot in the lineup will start it off. And it'll be Eck pinch hitting.
-
OH! Grounder to second, he goes home for the force, the throw is in time.. but its a low throw, short hops Stinnett, he can't handle it. Run scores. Phils take the lead, and Myers is up in the pen.
-
Passed ball and Bourn takes 2nd, and they walk Howard. How that ball got through that catchers legs Ill never know. Oh, thats Kelly Stinnett,lol. Molina left the game earlier due to a fat ass. (he hurt his leg, actually, I think). They walk Rowand and its Dobbs with the bases all red, only one out.

Utley drives it to deep rightfield where Ludwick hauls it in as he hits the outfield wall. Burrell follows with an infield single up the middle, and Bourn will run for him. Ryan Howard is up.
-
Cards get a Ludwick single with 1 out in the 9th. Ludwick runs into an out at 2nd on a missed hit and run. Barden Ks and we go extra's. That pesky David Eckstein was set to pinch hit, but he dont get to the dish. Phils are 9-7 in extra inning games, and have won their last 5 extended contests.

metirish wrote: So does Willie still throw Pelfrey out there tomorrow or send Glavine and not get that extra days rest for Pedro,I mean it's fucking crunch time here. Good question. I would imagine if the Phils win their game he will consider alternatives. Willie went on record before todays game saying Maines our stopper, and we are in good shape. And Im glad he said that. It was the thing to say.....at the time. Well, Willie, its really time to show your a manager. Manage to save our asses please.

Earlier in the game, first inning as a matter of fact, there was a play- Cards SS Ryan missed a sign,.. No one on, 1 out. He had 3 balls on him, and he missed the take sign. He flied out to center. When he got back in the dugout La Russa approached him. Now La Russa,....if he's not smiling (and thats rare) he looks mad even on a good day. He goes up to Ryan and says a few things, none nice, I'm sure. Ryan is pulling off his batters glove's looking clueless as Tony berates him, though thats a rather harsh word to use to describe it. I guess what La Russa was saying was something to the effect of "Here's the sign for go hit the showers kid, your outta here." La Russa pulled him. In the first inning. Thats one serious manager there. Its still tied in the 9th. J-Roll batting for the Phils with 2 out.
-
Stays tied. 3-3. Cards coming to bat in the 8th.
