That was a BIG double play in the 8th. A man on base with Manny in the batter's box is not a good feeling right about now.

EDIT: Lidge on the hill in the 8th is a rarity this year... Gear up!!

Yeah, Eithier got tight. Martin got a lil tight earlier on the line drive out to 2nd(that has to be a sacrifice fly at bat.) Could of gone differently. Gunna have to have better at bats in those situations if they are ever gunna get to a top level.

You got a hell of a hitter in that Victorino. He has just been too good for us. He has killed us in this series.

I just got in an friendly argument in Rite-Aid today about Victorino. The guy said he's not as fast as he should be and that he's a very spotty hitter. Ummm?? I told the guy to put the pipe down and its not even up for debate.

I love how Utley and SV play the game. Loney seems to be one of those player too. Dude's got a cannon for an arm and is scary as $hit in the box.

That 2012 end of the world s.hit? I'll start believing if Philly wins the World Series...or any other major sport championship for that matter. And no...Bon Jovi's Arena Rockers don't count.

Good work by Lidge thus far. I rescind my tongue-in-cheek comment that he's terrible. Still think he blows one before it's all said and done though.

Matt Stairs either looks like a coach or Todd Jones....

I was told this is an original quote from Matt Stairs last night...

Quote:
Not that I don’t feel like I’m part of the team, but when you get that nice celebration coming in the dugout and you’re getting your ass hammered by guys, there’s no better feeling than to have that done.

Story of this series is the same fkn 2 guys I've been talking about the whole year( Billingsley, and Broxton.) They are too inconsistent to ever go above this level. THEY'VE BEEN IGNORING THAT ALL YEAR. You can't beat a team like this unless you consistently play well. Those 2 pitchers have been inconsistent for over 2 years. Might have been able to overcome some of it if we had the much more consistent Saito healthy, but we don't.
