Bohm playing like a dope getting thrown out at second. No need and then JT and Castellanos strand two runs in scoring position. Good grief.

 

[Relayer]

...and another reliever starts the inning with a walk.

 

[WestSideLion]

Why Topper trusts Dominguez is beyond me.

 

[NittPicker]

Seranthony always makes it interesting.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Rojas with a triple and then is driven in by a SF by Turner.

5-2, Phightins, in the top of the 7th

It’s always the .091 hitters that get you in big moments.

 

[rudedude]

Can any of these MFers throw a strike????

 

[Relayer]

I guess Rob has no faith in his 16 game winner Taijuan Walker for an inning.

 

[NittPicker]

Can any of these MFers throw a strike????

Short answer = no.

 

[Relayer]

Topper f'n sucks. How can you throw the kid out there again?

 

[NittPicker]

Keep throwing the same pitch for a ball hoping they'll eventually swing at it.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Kerkering walks in a run in the bottom of the 7th, but gets a chopper to Harper for the 3rd out with the bases loaded.

5-3, Phils, heading to the 8th inning.

Kerkering was crapping his pants out there. Thompson is an idiot with his relievers.

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

Breathe.

think about it. Walker did well this season, but often had problems at the start of the game. And that's when he knew for 4/5 days that he was going to be starting. I wouldn't have a lotto faith in him in a relief role.

 

[NittPicker]

ffs Bohm. At least make him throw the ball.

 

[Relayer]

Kimbrel now after a 24 pitch bad outing last night. Time to go back to the Imperial IPA's.

 

[rudedude]

Bohm, Stott, JT, Casty all blow right now, useless at bats. Stott looks scared, JT can’t hit at all, Casty tries to hit a bomb every time. Ridiculous.

 

[NittPicker]

Nothing left to do but laugh.

 

[WestSideLion]

The Phillies just don’t have the bullpen to win it all. Same story each year.

 

[Shadow99]

At least Kimbrel gave up a double instead of a walk...no better for us as fans, but at least the Diamondbacks had to do SOMETHING to earn the double instead of just standing there for a walk.

 

[Relayer]

Kimbrel is cooked. This is Mitch Williams game 6 all over again.

 

[NittPicker]

Welp.......

 

[Tom McAndrew]

good grief. Kimbrel gives up a 2-run HR to the pinch hitter, Thomas, and we are tied 5-5 in the bottom of the 8th

 

[rudedude]

Topper blew this game with his brain fart decisions.

 

[WestSideLion]

Welp. It’s over, gang. Classic fashion.

 

[WestSideLion]

As I said a couple of weeks ago, calling Kimbrel a steaming pile of dog **** is too kind.

 

[Relayer]

Again, would Walker or Lorenzen be worse than Kimbrel? 45 pitches and counting in the past 24 hours.

 

[CDLionFL]

The analytics hater in me is loving the disasters that this bullpen game is causing. How in the world do you make the playoffs without 4 viable starters?

 

[rudedude]

I never want to see Kimbrel throw another pitch for the Phillies.

 

[NittPicker]

A couple shiddy outings by Kimbrel. Thanks dude...

 

[Shadow99]

Kimbrel...in big spots because of what he did YEARS ago...inexplicable.

This outing was PREDICTABLE as soon as he entered the game...that's what is most frustrating about losing the lead.

 

[Relayer]

Thanks Topper, you blew this. The world knows Kimbrel chokes in big spots.

 

[Shadow99]

...and now Alvarado is overused because so few in that bullpen can throw strikes, let alone pitch.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

And now Alvarado gives up a single with guys on 1st & 2nd, making it 6-5, Diamondbacks in the bottom of the 8th. 2 outs, and men on 1st & 3rd.

 

[rudedude]

Game set match. Better hope we win tomorrow or it’s big trouble. Unbelievable stupidity once they hit Arizona

The Phillies will get bounced. There’s no recovering from this.

 

[rudedude]

Also the hitting crapping the bed too. Too many opportunities again to get runners in and this is what happens.

 

[Relayer]

The good news is Walker and Lorenzen will be well rested to pitch tomorrow. Geez, not too much pressure on Wheeler to go deep tomorrow.

 

[NittPicker]

Fresher arms in the bullpen but go with the guy who took the loss yesterday.
