Other Sports: Philadelphia Phillies: The Road To .500 (2023 Edition)

freakin capital one getting our hopes up with that exclusive ticket offer, all tickets gone immediately then seeing new tickets listed on stubhub

Don't think they changed anything in the lineup. Rob is stubborn.

The thin air in Arizona is tough on breaking balls, FBs and changeups are a better bet.
Sanchez has an excellent changeup, so I like his chances.
Because the park is so big, you can challenge hitters with a good FB, Rojas hit a ball that was probably out in CBP.

On my way to Phoenix for the game now. This state sucks. It’s dusty and it’s a literal hell hole. 100 degrees today

With global warming accelerating, I'm happy to be out of Texas. I lived through a summer of 70 days of 100+, what was a once every few decades occurrence is becoming an every few years thang - Arizona and Nevada must be unbearable these days.

I am so sick of their shit.

Other than moving Bohm down what else would you do? I agree though. Dusty is considered a players manager too and he's made some big changes such as dropping Tucker down. No excuse for Rob not to with Bohm. Even another players manager in Bochy moved his 9th place hitter up to 5th today.

With everyone focusing on the loss, I just want to say that Ranger Suarez is money in the playoffs

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Guys,

We r fkd.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

It was a terrible bunt but I really don’t get the strategy there anyway with having Altuve bunt.

 

[Halladay]

Lowe has tied the game up.

 

[Flybynite]

Guys,

We r fkd.

[Sombastate]

This is seventeen billion times better than a rally towel.

They’ll probably have those too.

 

[Halladay]

I just screamed

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Good to see that bum Verlander get whacked around.

Feels like a good time to remind ourselves that the goal is to pull the starter before they get into these situations, not when they first happen. And what that can look like.

With the Astros bullpen I agree, but I suspect with it being Verlander he gets more leeway.

Our good friend Hector is in.

I hate domed stadiums. There’s just absolutely no character with any of them.

What if the roof retracts like it did last night?

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Nope. Still no character. It’s like wearing makeup. We still see the core.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Lol, umps.
