[zambonir]

The mighty righthanded Phillies line-up (plus Harper).

[HopeSpringsEternal]

Sean Rodriguez could not make the play in LF on Yaz’s double. Down 2 runs already and no outs in the bottom of the first. Not sure stacking the lineup with RH hitters is so smart.

[LoneStarPhan]

Lead off the game with a walk and it turns into a run. DP sure helped.

2-0 after one inning.

You have to stack the lineup with RH hitters who can play defense...

[LoneStarPhan]

The lineup has been terrible the past week or so. At least that’s my opinion. Of course, the line up order isn’t responsible for the dismal performance of the hitters.

[LoneStarPhan]

Realmuto walks..
Kingery walks.
Rodriguez strikes out. He sees four pitches.

But he hits lefties well.

Hernandez singles. Bases loaded.
Jake Arrieta strikes out.
Quinn walks. Run scores.

Harper singles. Two score. Runners first and third. Two out.

[zambonir]

small ball!

[LoneStarPhan]

Pitching change. Gustave coming in.

Mendez was over fifty in pitches.

Hoskins lines an 0-2 pitch to right for the final out of the inning.

3-2 going to the bottom of the second.

[HopeSpringsEternal]

Just got back from a run to the airport. I left with the Phillies trailing 2-0 and Arrieta seemingly struggling. Pleasantly suprised to see Harper batting with the bases loaded and the Phillies only down a run. Maybe there is hope?

[LoneStarPhan]

Arrieta strikes out 3 in the second.

Pitch count at 43.

[zambonir]

Pretty much figured Rodriguez would leave early, just didn't think they'd have already chased the starter this early.

[LoneStarPhan]

Yes, but Kapler still manages to get Dickerson in to hit against a LH pitcher and he pops up with two RISP.

[LoneStarPhan]

Phillies score two on single by Hernandez.
Realmuto Single and Kingery double had put runners on second and third with one out.

5-2 going to bottom of the third.

[Patchmk88]

We just can’t make it easy.

[LoneStarPhan]

Out, home run, single, out, double and it is 5-4 with two out, runner on second.

[LoneStarPhan]

Single makes it 5-5.

Seems obvious that Arrieta is finished for the night. Should have been taken out on last mound visit while it was 5-4, but I guess they hoped he could finish the third inning.

And he does, getting a ground out.

Pitch count for 3 innings is 66.

I really hoped Jake could be effective for five innings, but he clearly has not been effective in two of the first three innings.

[LoneStarPhan]

Trevor Gott replaces Andrew Suarez with bases loaded, one out.

Quinn K.
Harper walk.
Hoskins walk.
Segura single.

Realmuto strikes out. Two out.
Kingery pops up first pitch.

Another huge chance blown.

[LoneStarPhan]

Parker pitches seven pitch 1-2-3 inning.

On to the fifth tied 5-5.

[LoneStarPhan]

Phillies fail to score in the 5th.

Velasquez had two out pinch hit single.
