I am starting to think the Phillies can only beat bottom feeders. Schwarber and Harper struck out 7 times in 8 at bats, that is pathetic. Schwarber was a perfect 4 for 4. I see the Cubs won again.
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.

The Phillies won a nail biter tonight. The bottom third of the lineup did all the damage (3 runs) and the relief pitchers finally did their job by not giving up any runs. The top 6 hitters went 1 for 20, but a win is a win.

Brewers give away a win. Twice get 2 run leads and can't close up shop!
Bryce They were looking really bad last night, but I thought they were going to pull it off anyway. I shouldn't have shut it off too soon I guess.

I just found out the Phillies/Braves game is on Fox tonight, I am a happy camper, I get that channel and will be able to watch the game.

Hey, what the heck, they did bang out 3 hits and only struck out 14 times against a team with a depleted lineup due to numerous injuries. Thomson is so concerned about the health of the club that he keeps giving starting players days off so they don't get injured. He gave Bohn the night off and his replacement left two ground balls get by him that I am sure Bohn would have turned into outs. Bohn has been their most consistent hitter this year. College football happens in 9 days, I hope Penn State doesn't let me down.

Yesterday I read somewhere that the Phillies have the 3 worse record in baseball since some point in July, I do not recall the date in July but I think it was early, like the 7th or somewhere around there, I know the White Sox have a worse record and I think the article said the Mariners. That is hardly playoff material let alone being a serious contender for the World Series.

Braves may not get far in the playoffs or even in the playoffs but with all the major injuries we many times over look how well managed and coached the Braves have been for decades. They have developed a lot of good players through their farm system. When Arcia was with the Brewers and we had a very poor hitting lineup he struggle a lot hitting. He has improved a lot with the Braves and has always been a very good defensive SS.
Bryce Injury after injury to our key players. Definitely not our year, unfortunately.
