Phillies Win Another
2-6, not bad, that's how they started the last 3 out of 4 seasons. Let's just hope that they are able to overcome the odds of the past. No team has ever made it to the World Series since 1945 after starting 2-6. Will the Phillies overcome it, well if I know anything about Philadelphia sports, it's that we sure like to overcome great odds, and once we do, we usually fall flat on our face. Anyway, they one a game that was gift wrapped, and handed to them on a silver platter. They had four walks and a hit batsmen in one inning. I mean a total of 11 walks should led to a win for any team. Although I'm not taking anything away from the great Adam Eaton's performance. Throwing a solid seven innings while allowing only 2 runs. I mean this is what we expect from our starters, but the real kicker came when the bullpen and Gordon didn't give up a single run since they took over. First time of the year, WOW. Let's give a HOO-RAH to that. We beat the Mets, and are now 2-6 with are only other winning pitcher (Jamie Moyer aka 60 mph fastball guy) taking the mound tonight against future HOF Tom Glavine. If we can start swinging our bats at the right time, we can possibly gain back some lost ground on team batting average and start winning. Why is Burrell the one coming through? What is Howard doing, and why in the world is this bullpen so horrible? Let's push the past 10 days aside and start fresh and new in our own mind set. Phillies all the way in 2K7. I feel it, do you?
