EVERYBODY HITS: Phillies 22, Reds 1

Holy &*@#ing &@#$, that was fun to watch.
The Phillies tagged Cincinnati pitching for 22 runs, including a franchise record-tying 10 runs in the first inning, while Cole Hamels cruised through seven innings allowing just one solo home run to Jonny Gomes in the second inning.
Man of the hour Shane Victorino, one of the final five All-Star candidates, led the charge, with four hits, including a two run homer that started the scoring in the first, four RBI, and five runs scored. Everyone else in the starting nine had at least one hit, including two from Hamels, and Jayson Werth put an exclamation mark on the scoring in the 8th with a grand slam off Reds emergency reliever/backup shortstop Paul Janish.
The 22 runs scored was the most for the Phillies since June 11, 1985, when the Fightins beat the Mets by a score of 26-7. Check out that boxscore. Man, five hits for Juan Samuel. Two first inning homers for Von Hayes. 10 runs off Calvin Schiraldi!
Good old-fashioned butt-whooping. Let's hope they can keep it going.
Dig that Fangraph. 98.7% chance of victory after the first inning.

The Phillies will not score another run before the ASG. You just watch.

Fangraph
The only fangraph more fun than that would be the Rooker’s Unintentional Walk game (6/8/89 – Pirates at Phillies).

Am I reading that right?
That the highest leverage situation was the JRoll walk in the first? It has to be the Hamels double right?

It was actually the Victorino homer
That had a leverage of 1.41. Hamels’ double was 0.68.

Aha, you're right
There’s so much Phillies goodness packed in there I wasn’t following the lines correctly.

The dumb b*tch on First Take said that Cueto got snubbed from the all-star game & he should have Santanna’s spot, take that First Take (<—- worst & most biased sports show on the planet)
