Should have let Pivetta pitch. This bullpen is like pouring gas on a fire. Ugh.
Gallo hits an upper deck just foul ball. Ball hit a kid who's shaken up. Probably not many people up there expecting balls coming at them.Then K's swinging.
5-2 Them.

Odubel lines out to 2ndAltherr flies to deep centerJoseph Ks looking. 1-2-3 go the Phils.
At the present time, the Rangers are as good as any team in MLB. Based on play vs. the Phillies, they are far better than the Nationals.
Bottom 6th
More Joely!
Saunders is out of the game, Ty Kelly in left
Hoying bunt singleDeShields out on slow 4-3, runner to 2ndChoo walks. Andrus doubles to left, 6-2. Don't think Joely has it today. Pete and Bob not sure yet.
We're sticking with Joely because a lefty is up.
Send him down.
Somehow the lefty manages to get a hit against Joely. It's 8-2 Them.
Mazara grounder thru the infield playing in.
It's games like this that I miss Larry Anderson. Where is he today?
We're bringing in Neshek, now that the game is lost. Guess he's our long man?
Pete's taking him out. Because there's a difference between 5-2 and 8-2.
Can the Phillies score 6 runs? Um....not likely.
Chirinos flies deep to right, Altherr out there, makes the catch.
Odor grounds out 6-3. Neshek somehow gets people out, glad we waited until we fell behind by 6 runs to bring him in.
