GDT 9/17/21 Philadelphia Phillies (Wheeler) @ New York Mets (Walker, T)

[LoneStarPhan]

Bradley with another bad outing. Oh for a solid bullpen.

Replay called. It might get worse.

Yes, safe at second. Inning continues. Tying run on second, two out.

[bkox]

safe at 2nd

[bkox]

Ian Kennedy coming in to give up the 2R HR

[zambonir]

That rather good outing from Alvarado might be the best we get. Hector not available I presume? Or only if desperate?

[LoneStarPhan]

At least Kennedy got out of the 8th with a lead. Can he pitch a scoreless ninth? I guess we will find out.

Sure would be nice to get some more runs in the top of the 9th.

[BostonRoss]

Who’s feeling confident?

Me neither...

So it's down to Kennedy do or Kennedy don't.

Sure would be nice to get a strong outing here in the bottom of the 9th.

It has to happen sometime.

Two days in a row with no blown saves!

Kennedy with a save.

The Phillies win.

There is a Santa Claus.

Watching the Phillies is worse than a haunted hayride! Oh my nerves!
