[Varjak]

Bryce leaned back against the fence with a look on his face like even he couldn't believe that just happened.

[HopeSpringsEternal]

Wow, first inning woes continue. Phillies always playing from behind it seems.

[LoneStarPhan]

Harper had to have lost the ball. It bounced very close to him and went into the stands, but there was plenty of room and he was in the right spot in plenty of time.

Wil Crowe

Hit by pitch (90.9 mph four-seam fastball)

Wil Crowe hit by pitch.

[LoneStarPhan]

Crowe gets to 36 pitches in two innings; Vince did it in one.

Yes, Didi signed for next year hurts. Sure would be nice to have that money available this coming off season. I don't see an off season trade unless the Phillies pay most of the bill. I would love to see Didi start hitting again. With a DH possible in the NL next year, he could see some action as a DH if he gets the bat going.

[Patchmk88]

Even the pitches that the Pirates are taking for strikes are right down the middle.

[kikutaro]

Ben Gamel

Called strike (81.2 mph knuckle curve)
Foul (93.2 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (92.4 mph four-seam fastball)
In play, out(s) (81.6 mph knuckle curve)

Ben Gamel pops out to second baseman Ronald Torreyes.

[kikutaro]

Ke'Bryan Hayes

In play, run(s) (91.9 mph four-seam fastball)

Ke'Bryan Hayes doubles (11) on a sharp line drive to center fielder Odubel Herrera. Wil Crowe scores.

Wow, first inning woes continue. Phillies always playing from behind it seems.

Well, it's a change from a couple of months ago when they seemed to always go up early before winding their way through another night of reliever roulette (sponsored by Milk of Magnesia).

[Patchmk88]

Meatballs all over the place.
