Happy Father's Day, Dad -- Here's Some Crap: Orioles at Phillies Game Thread, June 21, 2009
Baltimore Orioles at Philadelphia Phillies, Jun 21, 2009 1:35 PM EDT
Meeting Pops at the game, where he will get a free Bucket Hat, if not particularly inspired baseball. I can only do what I can. At least Hamels is pitching...

Hamels’ pitches were pretty filthy. I liked what I saw, and the mixing of the pitches was fabulous. Hopefully he keeps it up.

well, if you exploit some market inefficiencies, as they say in Moneyball, you can make your jackpot dollars go further even in this Great Recession. By the NovaCare complex, anyway, they stop collecting $ for parking at 7.30. And, by that time, and without much trouble you can get a lower level seat ($42 retail) for about $20 or, if you want to go real cheap, just get SRO.
My problem was, I went on Tuesday night, so had to endure the Barajas-Rolen late inning elephant train.

I was there on Wednesday, where it was just general malaise and Grampa’s crappy early inning meltdown.

Wait...the Phils have a run and the opposition doesn't.
Is that allowed?
That ball hit deep! Way back! You can put it on the boooaaaard...YES!
Long drive into deep right center field! This ball is OUTTA HEEERRRREE!

sure. But what’s not allowed is that the opposition may not remain scoreless in the ensuing half inning.

Yeah, it is almost positive that the Phillies will give back runs they have scored in one way, shape or form.

I just want to note the irony of the Sportscenter ads where Jelly Roll ‘watches tape’ with Scott Van Pelt. Seems to me that he watches more tape of SVP than he does of his own hitting and/or opposing pitchers.

This series has been a BABIP nightmare. So many dinks and doinks. Actually, forget the series, the whole damn homestand.

Okay, now it’s time for the offense to wake up.

Buck Martinez making excuses out of the ass for Mora.

Thank god i’m listening to McCarthy and Wheeler. Though I hate Wheels, he is much better than Martinez

I kinda wish cole had gotten at least one K that inning, but hey, a great throw by Shane and a nice DP works.

These guys singing God Bless America are terrible. Even by my standards.

Question
Just following on GameCast – does it seem like pretty much nothing is happening in this game? A solo homer for the Phillies and a two-out single after it looked like Hamels might avoid trouble in the sixth. And we’re already in the bottom of the seventh. Strange.

You are getting more action on the gamecast than we are on TV

Is it too much to ask for a rally from Dobbs, Feliz and Ruiz?
by phillyinportland on Jun 21, 2009 3:21 PM EDT up reply actions
Yes.

Maybe Chan Ho, Romero, and Tyler Walker instead of Madson for now.

When we hit the road, that is when it will turn around cause the pitchers will finally figure out that they aren’t in the Bank and will pitch without any fear of making a mistake.

Because the Mets are terrible, too?
And you play in a division that features the Washington Nationals.

Game sucked and I was out at the first base gate smoking when Dobbs homered. Therefore I saw no offense all game :(
