Phils hand the Braves their 15th loss on the year... Looked like the Brad Lidge of old finishing off the Braves 1-2-3. Good Bullpen effort today... Finish the homestand on a win...taking 7 of 10.
actually last week was the first time, Trio of homers send Phillies past Braves, 5-3 - MLB - Yahoo! Sports Durbin struck out four of the six batters he faced, and Jose Contreras(notes) pitched the eighth on a day when both their mothers were in attendance for Mothers Day. Contreras' mom saw her son pitch in person for the first time last week, while Durbin's mom joined the Phillies broadcast team in the booth for a few innings.
Anyone else just see that play by Valdez? Thoughts? I think he had it but then on 1 of the ankles it does look like it bounced a little.
I didn't notice any ankles...tee hee. I thought it was dropped live, but then thought he caught it on the replay. Shane with 2 triples tonight. Don't see that often.
I'm under the influence of morphine at the moment, I apologize for any spelling errors I have or will make! lol **********Automerged Doublepost********** Ruiz is on fire tonight. Nice RBI to bring Howard in for the go ahead in the top of the 9th. **********Automerged Doublepost********** Gload, 3 run HR!
