Whoops. I thought the game was over.

Okay, it is, but the Phillies still have to bat one more time.

Two good innings from De Los Santos. One out double last inning, but he got two good hitters out and didn't give up the run. Good ninth inning as well. It is good for him to get some major league work.

[EastFallowfield]

First time swept since June 1-3 in SF??

[LoneStarPhan]

I feel bad for Crawford. He was 3 for 3 and then gets called out on strikes on a pitch that (by graphics showing the strike zone) was a couple inches outside the strike zone. I guess the umpire was tired and ready to go home. A really bad call from the home plate ump and a sorry way to end the game.

Regardless, the game was in the top of the first inning. This Phillies team has gone from an amazing upbeat story to a dismal collapse. The Phillies are at this point, the worst team in a weak division.

You know what’s really distressing? Kapler probably won’t start him on Friday, citing some obscure analytics-related reason why playing him more than one game at a time is inadvisable
