A good ending for Seranthony with a 1-2-3 ninth inning, including 2 Ks.

So the Phillies win the final two games and end the season at 80-82. So close to a winning season and it would have happened if they had just been bad over the final two months. It took a horrendous collapse to not have a winning season.

Now the fun begins. The off season. Free agents, trades, cuts, non-tenders, 40 man roster construction. I anticipate an active and interesting off season for our Phillies.

gmwannabe 2018-09-30 22:40:43 UTC #89

i don't know how many times i've seen this in the daily threads, but "Knapp strikes out swinging" came up an awful lot of times. What happened to him?

Omaha 2018-09-30 22:59:18 UTC #90

It’s not just Knapp, but more than half of the outs in the game came via the K. I beginning to miss the pop outs and bouncers to short of years gone by.

Jeff05 2018-09-30 23:50:20 UTC #91

Well, that was a great way to end a "disappointing" season. Fourteen more wins is a decent improvement over last year. Thanks kikutaro for maintaining the bot and thanks LSP for providing the colo(u)r. Let the fun begin!!

EastFallowfield 2018-10-07 12:13:32 UTC #92

It would be neat if this was the last run the Braves scored in 2018.

allentown 2018-10-07 13:32:13 UTC #93

Just salt in the wound -- shows that the team that beat us for NL East title isn't nearly as good as the best team in NL, suggesting just how far short we come of being good enough to go to a WS.

DurhamBull 2018-10-07 13:53:38 UTC #94

It’s a good reality check, or a grim one, depending on one’s perspective. Even when the Phils were in first place, they didn’t feel to me like a team that would hold up well in the postseason.

EastFallowfield 2018-10-07 14:28:45 UTC #95

You could also argue that if the Braves aren't that good then there are hopes for us in the division in the future.

Lucky_Beagle 2018-10-07 16:05:48 UTC #96

or we could think anything can happen in a short series like one team gets good pitching or the other teams batters go cold.

LoneStarPhan 2018-10-07 16:59:03 UTC #97

In the regular season, the Phillies were 4-3 vs. the Dodgers. I think I read that Atlanta went 2-5 vs. the Dodgers.

zambonir 2018-10-07 18:29:59 UTC #98

Yeah, you can't really take much from a short series but I certainly wanted the Phillies to be the team that stole the division and got bounced early as a learning experience.

EastFallowfield 2018-10-08 00:40:23 UTC #99

Braves score a run again after a 2 out bases loaded walk to a pitcher. Then a bunch more.

bkeich 2018-10-08 13:59:00 UTC #100

I wanted them to be the team that really shouldnt have made the playoffs but won the World Series because they got hot lead by the hitting of J P Crawford, Scott Kingery and Aaron Altherr, but hey, we each have our own dreams
