[billgtrman]

What a disappointing return to home for all the loyal fans. Such a disgrace. 3 HRs(? Right) from a weak HR hitting team (except Burger) I think heads have to roll (said for a few weeks now), with Topper the first out. You can tell the team plays just like the emotionless head coach. It just can't get any worse

[kikutaro]

[Philsmania]

Yeah, obviously Walker did them no favors with the hole but this should not be an insurmountable lead. Against the Marlins.

Walker settled down enough to keep them in the game.

Ball (94.3 mph four-seam fastball)

I think heads have to roll (said for a few weeks now), with Topper the first out.

I think you’re way off base with this statement. Yes, the team is in a bad slump. No, this isn’t the time to fire people.

[Philsmania]

Few "contending" teams are playing well now. I am beginning to think that NFL-style parity has come to MLB.

[zambonir]

As he so often does. But not scoring first is never a good path to winning especially for this team.

[LoneStarPhan]

Today, the Marlins outpitched, outhit, and outfielded the Phillies.

Submediocre play continues.

[zambonir]

76 pitches and three ER in four innings is still not good. But so it goes.

7-16 since the break.

[VoteForKalas]

And you keep giving runs up

[Philsmania]

7-16 since the break.

8-18 going back to the Oakland series.

[zambonir]

Well, I grant you that feels like the series that foreshadowed this spiral but that Sunday game (Mercado starting, half the team packing for the All-Star break, 18 runs allowed still kind of an outlier. And they did sweep the Dodgers on that same homestand.

Honestly, when you look at the second-half schedule it doesn't feel like such an interminable and unrelenting streak. They've gone 6-10 on the road which is not exactly up to best team in baseball standards but it's the 1-6 home record that really killed them (along with the sense that they just stopped showing up in Arizona).

Can they start to change it tonight?

[andyb]

The big takeaway for me on this game is we should have pounded that pitcher. He got a little help from the umpire, but we missed a whole lot of relatively straight 91 mph pitches in the zone. Whether it is timing or injuries, we simply are not hitting anywhere near where we should. Walker was not great (command and control are just not there), but we really should have scored a bunch of runs with what should have been our healthy "A" lineup.
