espn feed working in philly for some reason

It was the only 7PM game but yeah, usually they just show ESPNEWS

Burrell and Howard with triples on the same night....f'ing awesome

[LBIggle]

thats a big dude cruisin them bases.

Howard isn't even looking to pull the ball at this point.  He's just swinging level and letting the ball get deep on him before finishing his swing.

It's bad farging news for everyone they face if he starts hitting like this for a month or so.

[LBIggle]

really wish the lineup after burrell wasn't always a guaranteed out.  are u kidding me again jenkins..

[Geowhizzer]

For some reason Utley just isn't seeing the ball well tonight.  He even missed the meatballs Timlin was lobbing up there.

[Geowhizzer]

Hamels needs to put Pedroia on his ass here.

stupid charlie took burrell out already...i farging hate that shtein

So?

utley hasnt had a hit since friday. just a normal slump.

jenkins is also in a pretty bad slump, though he was a lot better in may (.303 avg, .818 ops). hes also been brutal against lhp, but thats expected when he only gets 15 ab's against them.

hes also the best option against rhp, werth is hitting below .250 and has a lower ops. the obp's are about the same, but thats just because werth walks so much.

[Rome]

In this case it's actually a good move.  Or at least it would have been if Jenkins hadn't swung at the first pitch (again).

Someone needs to clue that farger in that he's not playing in Milwaukee anymore so there's no reason to play like an AIDS-glazed jockstrap.

[MDS]

ge off is what he is. his performance so far has pretty much been consistent with his career averages. and he looks like brett favre, legendary drug addicted qb.

[Rome]

FTW!
