[HopeSpringsEternal]

... and the NY Jets come back and tie the Eagles in the last preseason game. Too bad this one couldn’t end in a tie.

[LoneStarPhan]

Phillies about to go 0-5 against the worst team in NL and a team that was the worst in all MLB until they played the Phillies last week.

Embarrassing!

[zambonir]

Are we second-guessing the manager here or just pointing out that Bradley's likely hurt (or at least "sore").

Or is he actually demoted due to pitching poorly in his last two outings? (Which still doesn't make him worse than EDLS, though I suppose EDLS wasn't worse than our closer either.)

[bkox]

if hes healthy and Giraldi picked EDLS instead... yes we are 2nd guessing. But Joe doesnt tell the media who is hurting and unavailable.. so we dont know

[LoneStarPhan]

Three relievers fail tonight. Can’t say who joe should have used instead but whoever else probably fails as well. Things are going out of control quickly D-Backs have finished off the season for the Phillies.

[Philsmania]

Sometimes a bad team just perfectly has a better team's number. See the Marlins against us in recent years. This Diamondback team team is simply a bad matchup for us.

[kikutaro]

Phillies Wall of Famer Brad Miller

[LoneStarPhan]

Gosh. If only the bullpen could have been merely bad and not horrendous.

[Philsmania]

It's just a matter of time before the Braves open up a ten game lead in the division.

[kikutaro]

Freddy Galvis

Ball (78.3 mph changeup)
In play, out(s) (88.5 mph sinker)

Freddy Galvis grounds out to first baseman Christian Walker.

[zambonir]

They were losing tonight... and didn't.

[LoneStarPhan]

I think I have come to accept that the Phillies will not catch the Braves. I’m hoping for an above .500 finish.

Called strike (88.9 mph sinker)
Foul (75.9 mph curveball)
Ball (80.1 mph splitter)
