At least the Phillies scored one run in the top of the inning. Started the inning with hits by the first three to come to the plate but only five total got to bat in the inning. Left two on the previous inning without scoring any runs. Opportunities but not getting the big inning.

A lead off walk.
oh good, one more bullpen appearance before we get down to our last three outs of the season.
I feel bad for Girardi. It has to be really hard to make decisions with the bullpen that we have.

Mike Brosseau strikes out swinging.
One of the cruel things about this year is that Rosso and, especially, Brogdon probably would have blossomed and contributed in a normal season, or even this one if there hadn't been so much pressure to, ahem, "upgrade" before August was even over.

Brogdon does okay but he's no Workman or Hembree. Need to have veteran presence in the bullpen.
Maybe Brogdon is making that decision a little easier. Glad that Girardi gave him the opportunity tonight (and really glad him came through).
