We want another one just like the other one - NOT!
Last night's game vs. the Dodgers was eerily similar to the one on TUESDAY night: Chad Durbin blew the save in the 8th, then the Dodgers quickly put the Phillies out of their misery in the 9th. The only differences were that, this time, the Phils actually lost a bigger lead, left more men on base and struck out even more times! I think the totals were 8 men LOB on Tuesday, 11 LOB on Webesday. 11 K's on Tuesday, 12 on Wednesday (and a good number of them were caught looking). The Phillies, being professional ballplayers, should know that they only get 27 outs in a game. Striking out almost 50% of the time is not good!
Please, Phillies. If you guys want to win, start playing like it. If you don't, tell me now so I'll know not to bother for the rest of the season.
