The Price is Right losing horn (via Hicksatpd)
Now that's more like it. The Phillies did all they needed with two big innings -- a six run first, and a four run fourth, as they went on to beat the Tampa Bay Rays by a score of 10-1. Wunderkind David Price did not pitch well at all, but he certainly didn't get any help from his defense, with three total Rays errors. John Mayberry, Jr. put the game away with his three run homer in the first, giving the Phillies a 6-0 lead from which they never looked back. Shane Victorino and Chase Utley combined for five of the Phillies ten hits.
Jamie Moyer continued his mastery of Florida teams (insert "He's looking to retire to Boca! LOLOLOLOL" joke here), going six innings and allowing just one run. Tyler Walker and Sergio Escalona pitched three scoreless innings out of the bullpen to close the game out.
Cruise control. Kind of boring. But the good kind of boring.
Look! A lovely Fangraph, that resembles the continental shelf off the Pacific coast.

This fangraph is great. The highest leverage situation in the entire game was Utley’s double in the first inning, before there was even an out recorded.
Game thread was eerily FM free. Boycott of interleague play? Or eerie coincidence.
I’m just sayin’.

mitigation with PIR horn however, so this is kind of like getting hit by a Moyer fastball.

It’s a shame prices first name isn’t bob
"Someone created the box score," Morey says, "and he should be shot."
Blocked shots — they look great, but unless you secure the ball afterward, you haven’t helped your team all that much.

Moyer
I think Moyer would make a great assistant pitching coach who just pitches once in a while.
I have always supported him, unlike some of the posters.
