Revenge of the Fallen: Rays 7, Phillies 1

Another punchable headline, but I couldn't resist.
Pat Burrell has gotten his revenge, in the form of a second inning home run off Phillies starter Joe Blanton, that turned out to be all the offense the Rays would need en route to their 7-1 victory Wednesday night. Matt Garza locked down the Phillies offense, holding them to three hits, the only run coming from a Jayson Werth solo homer. Blanton was excellent as well, allowing six hits in seven innings and striking out 10.
But it was some poor defensive decision-making by Jimmy Rollins that allowed the Rays to put the game out of reach late. With the bases loaded and two outs, Pat Burrell hit a solid grounder to Rollins that he flipped to Chase Utley for the force at second... except Ben Zobrist, who was running on contact with two outs and whatnot, beat the play. Run scores, and the Rays went on to put four more runs on the board. Remember how slow Pat Burrell is? Think he'd have had a play at first? BAH.
Rubber game tonight. Win Phils win.

From all I’ve read, this game still better than the movie
"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.

Oh man, the reviews are soooo bad, but I’m sure it’ll earn like a jillion dollars and I’ll be depressed, and Michael Bay will still rule the world.

I’d like to see a battle to the death cage match, uwe boll, michael bay, brett ratner, where they all lose, and hence we all win.
It made 60 mil last night
Once I saw jar jar binks comparisons i knew it was going to be bad.
The first one i liked, but bay had limited effects budget which made him make a better movie than of course he got all the money to make all his splosions.
Oh yeah – go watch th etrailer for 2012 and watch an aircraft carrier destroy the white house – that guy should be in the death match too
What’s sad is that if the script is so terrible that’s on orci and kurzman who were on quite a ‘sci fi’ roll for a while…maybe this is their one egg and fringe won’t go terribly wrong with it’s alternate reality plot line in season two
