I,m wondering how long we should stick with Smyly. I'd love to see our starters routinely going 7 innings but we know that is not possible.

I was typing this before the home run. Looks like once again, Kapler sticks with the starter an inning too long. Last night, Vargas gave them six solid innings, one run.

Tonight, Smyly gave up the 2 runs before we had a chance to realize the game had started, but then settled down. He ended up throwing 9 extra pitches last inning because Hoskins didn't come up with a ground ball. In hindsight, he should have been lifted after 5 innings tonight, but that is a tough call. I can understand trying to get six innings from him.

Pirates sure are helping our pitchers this series by getting caught trying to steal bases. Another out from the arm of JT.

Let's hope the Phillies offense can score some more runs tonight.

Smyly ends up pitching 5.2 innings but gives up 9 hits, 4 runs. Again, hindsight tells us that Kapler should have removed him after five innings just as it tells us he should have removed Vargas after six last night. To be fair, I think I would have sent Smyly back out for the sixth inning tonight since he had not given up a run after those first two hitters to start the game.

Pinch hitting with Miller for Rodriguez seems like a dumb move to me. They have a 4 man bench and it is only the sixth inning. Rodriguez had a home run last night and a double tonight

Of course, pinch hitting for Parker was called for and it works out well. But that is half the bench used here. Perhaps though, the Miller pinch hit appearance worked out well since had he not been used when he was, maybe he is the pinch hitter for Parker and Morrison doesn't bat this inning.

Good 1-2-3 seventh inning from Ranger. Who pitches the 8th?

Is Kingery available tonight? He and Knapp only players left on the bench.
