Ball, 1-0Ball in the dirt 2-0Mound chat, for some reason the Dodgers needed to delay to get people warmed up as if it isn't the 8th inning of a playoff gameBall, 3-0Strike called, 3-1Ball in the dirt, bases loaded for Marsh, with a lefty coming in, oh the bad choices we have here.
I saw Marsh go back into the dugout. Are they bringing out Sosa?
Yes it's Sosa vs Vesia
Sosa is 2-4 vs Vesia, they say.
Foul, 0-1Ball, 1-1Flies out to center, Phils leave the bases loaded, headed to the 9th, down 2.
Dang.
That will be a call that is debated, Sosa coming in not the best PH, not sure if Marsh would have been better there but so goes the game
Another opportunity not leading to anything. But keep getting runners on and things will start to happen.
I doubt Marsh would have done better. But we will never know.
Duran pitching, Wilson in left, Kepler in center
Pages swinging strike, 0-1Foul, 0-2Foul, 0-2Strike out swinging, 1 out
Well who knows. Robertson pitched in the sixth too. I assume Kerkering would have faced the same guys he did. Maybe he would have gotten it done maybe not.
Two innings from Ranger or Nola is how the Dodgers did it huh?

ugh
Phils bats go silent yet again with the top of the order not doing much. Can't expect to win with only 3 runs
Does not bode well
Shut out the final seven innings.
Football tomorrow and back to try for a win Monday.
