Bastardo struck out the side in the tenth inning, following a scoreless ninth from Danys Baez. The bullpen did a great job tonight tossing four innings of one hit ball. Thanks in large part to the heroics of these non-heroes, the Phillies won the game 4-2.

Hamels struck out Will Venable, intentionally walked Alberto Gonzalez and got opposing pitcher Clayton Richard to line out to short. The threat was averted and San Diego did not get another runner in scoring position for the rest of the game. Cole threw a ton of pitches (126 in all), but was in total control of the game and saved the Contreras-less bullpen with his outing.

Its the size of a coloring book and they couldn’t really decide if they wanted to include a “yellow caution tape” theme so they just kind of stuck it in there a few times without really thinking about it.

Everyone take a deep breath. Now everyone wonder why the fuck you are awake at 1:30 in the morning to watch a baseball game….you are an adult for gods sake. Anyway, Roy Oswalt looked just fine tonight as he allowed one hit in six innings while striking out seven

What are you, too good for the delicious scoops of choco-marshmallow (A revolutionary ingredient that combines “marshmallows” and “whatever choco is”) and swirls of liquified graham cracker of Phillies Graham Slam?

If you can get out to Boyertown without a mysterious apparition appearing in front of your car in the dead of night, order the sea bass.

Contreras fell behind Braun 3-1, but battled back to strike him out ending the game and earning his fourth save in four opportunities. Ryan Madson pitched a scoreless eighth to earn the win.

This introduction may not be indicative of what he actually says, however, because I’m writing it prior to actually getting his responses.

Roy had the opportunity to escape from absolute annihilation in the top of the seventh when Ryan Howard dove for a Price Fielder groundout and had it skip off of his glove. Rickie Weeks scored and Halladay gave way to David Herndon who promptly gave up a three run home run to Casey McGehee. Enter recently called up Mike Zagurski. Mike gave up two more runs making the score 9-0.
