Also, did I miss an announcement that weeknight home games were almost all now going to start at 6:45?

Hope I'm wrong, but this game so far has all the feelings of a late-innings bullpen meltdown for the Phils.

Herrera did attempt to give the 'pen a chance to blow the game, when he butchered the fly ball. However, poor base running by CO on the play minimized the damage.

That was, uh, quite the play! Very Blackmon-esque from the night before.

OK, on our way to the sweep. Go up to Citi Field and win the series and the division lead is down to 3 games. That would look pretty good considering where things stood after Sunday night's loss against the Brew Crew.

Now that Blue-White is behind me, I can return to my favorite thread. Let's Go Phillies!!!

Big sweep this week. Even bigger series coming up with the Mets. Seven games in the next 10 days. Half the season series will be over by the end of next weekend. Gonna be fun.

Tonight we will find out if….

1. The Mets are legit contenders for a World Series run or if they’re a Wildcard contender with a glass jaw.

2. Will Zack Wheeler replace Nola as the Phillies #1 pitcher?

Well no hits through 6 innings for the Phillies and down 2-0. Perhaps they left their bats in Philly?

Phillies got no hit. 159 pitches, 6 walks 9 full counts. Who the hell is their hitting coach? He needs a firing squad!

frustrating, or inconsistent, I'll give you.

they just swept the Rockies, so they have some talent. For whatever reason, it's been inconsistent this season.

I know it’s early in the season and anything can happen in the next few months, but I think we can all agree that this Mets team is playing lights out. The Phillies need to negotiate a big trade to improve the bullpen.

Improve the bullpen!!!???? Meaningless if you score no runs. How about players who get an occasional hit?

I said to someone on Thursday night that "bad things are going to happen in Philadelphia Friday because so much just went right tonight."

Embiid being out and the Phillies on the wrong end of a no hitter is pretty much what I had in mind.

Should be quite a pitching duel tonight. Max Scherzer might have to go 8 innings tonight. May the best team win.

What an awful broadcast of this game. These interviews are just terrible. Who gives a crap about Keith Hernandez or Hank Azaria? Brutally bad.
Are you watching ESPN or ESPN2? There are dual broadcasts.

Phillies score 6 runs on 4 homers but gave up 15 hits and 10 runs. Good old pitching strikes again.

I think there was a key error in the infield and a passed ball by the catcher, who may I say is usually clutch. While there is plenty of blame to go around, Girardi deserved some blame as well. Your middle relief guy pitched a great inning and and preserved a one run game. Why not let him pitch another inning, or two? This nonsense of pulling a relief pitcher after three outs makes no sense to me. I stand by what I said in a previous post. The Phillies need to trade a marquee player for a solid 2-3 inning pitcher and closer.
