That Weston Wilson is batting a thousand points higher than the Nationals?

[BostonRoss]

They can't let him pitch the ninth, can they?

[zambonir]

Man. What's the count now?

[LoneStarPhan]

8 innings in and at 111 pitches.

Do they send him out for the ninth? Or is it going to be Covey in the ninth? Maybe Marte. We will see.

[bkox]

111 pitches..

Broadcast pointed out the Phillies have 2 off days next week and are using a 6 man rotation

[allentown]

1. It's gross mismanagement to bring him out for 9th. Strange, I type 111, it says 111 in the window, then it posts as 1.

Nick Castellanos

Pitching Change: Robert Garcia replaces Cory Abbott.
In play, out(s) (90.8 mph four-seam fastball)

[bkox]

Covey up in the pen

[BostonRoss]

Covey warming

[BostonRoss]

You type faster than I do
