Mr Unvaxxed with a clutch hit

[MDS]

there is no more repulsive double than that

[MDS]

ser didnt have much...marlins were spitting on his shtein just off the plate and fouling off strikes. very unusual but it happens.

got lucky on the sanchez AB, then found his best breaker of the night to finish off rojas. they are 1 win away from a 4-5 trip which is what they needed to hit.

[PhillyPhreak54]

I expected that shteinhead Rojas to gap one.

Helluva slide piece to get him

[Don Ho]

I am sick and tired of these excuses for relievers, "Oh he was rattled by Billy Hamilton on the base path".  Pease stop.  Get over little Billy Hamiton and just pitch!

[PhillyPhreak54]

Yeah that was cringey.

Make a pitch son. No excuses

amaro rotates from being a very good analyst and a very bad one comment to comment...hell notice something that kruk or ben would never then in the next breath forget the DH rule or infer that ser was rattled based on nothing

He wasn't a popular gm or sports personality I'm still surprised to hear him on tv.

Geo did you go to this one as well?

Nope.  Why do you think they're hitting?



With the local blackout, listening to Murph and Stocker on the radio feed. Didn't feel like messing around with an underground stream.

[MDS]

a 5-4 trip would be kind of amazing considering how putrid they played for most of it...naturally tomorrow they wont hit and nola will have his usual meltdown

Report from Miami:

This team sucks.  That is all.

Where are you sitting?  I know you're a great dad, educator, good role model but I'll fly you both out to Hawaii you make your way above the Phils dugout with junior and just start laying explatives on these clowns. 

So pathetic when this lineup sees a beast like Sandy A and watching them wilt.

Don't know this Garcia cat from Adam but he just made a play we'll never see most of Phils OF make, ever.

We actually had great seats.  2nd row in the section right behind the first base bag - next to the Phils' dugout.  When Castellanos got thrown out at third, I think most of the stadium could hear my son bellow, "Castellanos, you suck!"  He's Philly through and through.

There was a younger couple in front of us in Marlins gear.  The young blonde woman kept giving us dirty looks

The crowd was only about 10K, and it felt like at least half Phillies fans.  Miami is a pathetic sports town.  Too many night clubs, beaches and strip clubs, I guess.  Miami is the New Jersey of Florida.

Soulless stadium too.

Good to see Jojo Romero back.

Ah yes the stellar mlb blackout rules - such a joke.

[Don Ho]

Amazing the Marlins franchise survives.  When I was there in August 2019 they were piping in crowd noise, it was sad.  75% of the 15K (well announced) on the Saturday night I went were Phils fans.  That huge astroturf landing pad where they had that whatever the hell that was, the tower sculpture thing, is so gawdy looking.  Soulless stadium is right.  To bad.

[Geowhizzer]

The sculpture was taken out of the stadium a few years ago - I think that was the one major decision made by Derek Jeter during his association with the team.

But this is what replaced it:
