He's a real all-around baseball player. He could be a difference-maker someday in a big game for a ring. Like Gonzo did against the Yanks. I'm talking down the line with a better team. He just kept fouling pitches off of Romero last night( until he got a mistake.) He should be playing every damn game for us. Shows you how doofus Torre is.

Patience at the plate, along with good hand eye coordination makes for a NASTY ball player.

Chuckles was high last night. He takes Burrell out for a defensive, ahem, upgrade (again). If Burrell was in the game, the play at the plate was alot closer, if not an out. Charlie "foot shooter" Manuel...Thank God he's a players coach and they play for him, unlike Bowa. A bunch of nancies that team was a few years ago...Couldnt take Larry in their faces all the time...Longball Larry...lol..(Curb your Enthusiasm reference)

Who was in left? I thought they should of had Martin on that ball. Weak throw.

Manny has a great eye at the plate. He has struck-out twice tonite, but they were on great pitches. He is by far the best hitter we have ever had.

[SCUDSBROTHER]

That pitcher was terrific. We can't hit that type. Who was that? MATSON? Send him out there for 6 more outs. No way we hit that type of pitcher.

[SCUDSBROTHER]

LOL....ALL of Philly gun get gray hair from watching this game. Wow.

[SCUDSBROTHER]

This game be pure comedy. It's sooooo hilarious. We are not as good as you making us look. Matson totally had us. Should of gone 1 more inning with him, and finished us off with Lidge. Sometimes managers are just stupido.

For a catcher, Martin can really fly, huh?
