Other Sports: Philadelphia Phillies: The Road To .500 Continues Into Red October (2024 Edition)

[Svechhammer]

Doyers lose
Braves lose
Brewers lose

That's a big, big win for the Phils.

 

[Halladay]

Massive win. Wheeler went 7 and Strahm and Hoffman finished it off. At worst tomorrow they will 3 games(4 really with the tiebreaker) over the Brewers for the bye with 10 games to go.

 

[Rebels57]

Spectacular pitching tonight and it was great to see 1-4 in the order all contribute.

 

[GKJ]

I better not see a rager in the clubhouse when they clinch a playoff spot.

Not sure he gets it this year although Sale is a pretty understandable pick. But he should have won one by now.

Common anti-Philly bias.

Wheeler losing to Burnes in 2021 was a war crime.

Dang

But I guess this means Baltimore is putting all their eggs in the Seranthony basket?

I don't believe with the HoF thing here because I think his peak firmly places him in the hall in the first couple ballots, but the ERA+ drop is insane. It's like he gave the controller to his little brother

There goes the classic hanging curveball for a homer from Nola. He should know better against Rhys.

Is there anything worse than watching Stott at the plate this season?

2 people in scoring position and anyone who swings at the first pitch should be smacked.

 

[Jack Straw]

Helluva play by Stott

KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Estevez blows another one. Happens around once per week. His stuff isn't as good as he thinks it is.

I've always thought Hoffman should be the closer. They needed to add another arm which Estevez is but he doesn't have to close games. His K/9 (8.2) is below his career average of 9.5. He is having a career low walk rate though. With the way Orion has pitcher could make a case for him.

Though they only scored 1 run and struck out 16 times. That's not going to get it done.

Hes a solid 8th inning guy but i trust Hoffman more. Carlos pitches in the zone too much and doesnt have enough movement to always get away with it.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Damn you, Nola.

Ohtani set the 50/50 mark in style.

5/5, 2HR, 2SB, 7 RBI

6/6 now 3 homers 10 rbis. I'm facing him in our (2 week long) championship. Already took down judge in the semis

I cannot wait until Taijuan Walker is no longer on this team.

Dodgers have 16 hits, six of which are extra base hits... Ohtani has five of the six.
