[Philsmania]

It's easy to feel like we are watching the same team as last year though I think there's a lot more to like about this one so far, even with the bullpen and a few individual struggles.

It IS the same team, except with better starting pitching. Otherwise, they are markedly worse than last year.

[LoneStarPhan]

That was one fine play to end the inning. So close! It becomes frustrating.

I agree, there are many good things about this team and I remain optimistic. This year is so crazy, I don't think we can draw the same conclusions that we might in a normal season.

I was thinking that I would have let Gosselin bat with no outs and pinch hit with Bruce for Quinn. I realize that they like Quinn in there for defense, but I would have liked to see Gosselin bat that inning.

[kikutaro]

Hanser Alberto

Defensive Substitution: Neil Walker replaces left fielder Andrew McCutchen, batting 1st, playing second base.
Jay Bruce remains in the game as the left fielder.
Pitching Change: Ramon Rosso replaces Blake Parker.
Ball (95. mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (86.7 mph slider)
Ball (95.1 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (94.4 mph four-seam fastball)

Hanser Alberto walks.

[LoneStarPhan]

Not an encouraging start by Rosso.

[zambonir]

Tough break/great play there. But, if the other team is constantly making the plays and getting the relief outs....

And it's not at all the same team. 3 of last year's starting 8 (at the beginning of the year) are gone. Heck, 3 of last year's season-ending starting 8 are different (since our LF was Corey Dickerson and Quinn seems to have beat out Haseley in CF overall. Though I guess Kingery counts regardless of position, especially with 9 batters now).

The line-up is better (and in fact, the best offense in MLB right now) and the rotation is better, the bullpen obviously is not (and nothing was done to make it better).

[kikutaro]

Anthony Santander

Ball (94.3 mph four-seam fastball)
Mound Visit.

With Anthony Santander batting, Hanser Alberto advances to 2nd on a balk.
Foul (85.9 mph slider)
In play, out(s) (95. mph four-seam fastball)

Anthony Santander lines out sharply to second baseman Neil Walker.

[kikutaro]

Jose Iglesias

Called strike (84.4 mph slider)
Foul (85.2 mph slider)
Swinging strike (96.6 mph four-seam fastball)

Jose Iglesias strikes out swinging.

[kikutaro]

Rio Ruiz

Swinging strike (94.3 mph four-seam fastball)
In play, out(s) (86. mph slider)

Rio Ruiz flies out to right fielder Bryce Harper.
