Houston Astros at Philadelphia Phillies, Sep 28, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
The Phillies start their final regular season homestand of the 2009 season against the Astros, who made such quick work of the Phillies earlier this month during that rotten series in Houston.
On the bright side, if you're a fan of any other team, is that the Astros are throwing crummy young pitchers at the Phillies. Tonight, Yorman Bazardo goes for the Astros against Cole Hamels.
The bad news, if you're a Phillies fan... the Phillies always seem (anecdotally) to struggle against unproven rookie types. Let's flip the trend.
Discuss the game below.

that shouldn't be legal
I don’t mind benefitting from Bako’s block because it’s always allowed, but there’s no earthly reason catcher should be able to fully physically obstruct the plate to prevent a run.

he actually had the ball which is why its allowed
he just didn’t tag him until well after he passed plate
by SmilingJPhilsPhan on Sep 28, 2009 8:06 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
but to allow it at all means that inevitably there are the try-to-give-catcher-a-concussion crashes, which are also permitted, because once you’ve let the catcher totally block the plate you’ve got to let the runner try to get to it, right? Save catchers. Leave football on the gridiron. Outlaw full blocks of bases.

I dunno. I don’t see that as “saving catchers” so much as “giving up runs without a fight.” If I’m the catcher and I have the ball, that runner’s gonna have to do his worst to get past me and score.

by jemagee on Sep 28, 2009 8:15 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
it is a tag play like the other bases
but the reason why fielders don’t get in the way at other bases is because they don’t have
the same equipment as the catcher. It happens very rarely, but if you have the ball any player
can block the basepath.

If you count Emilio Bonerface (who plays several other positions) then Feliz has the worst OPS among 3rd baseman in the national league — by 15 points.

just for the record
I sort of skimmed through the official rules and as far as I can tell, you’re right about blocking a base – they don’t appear to say you can, but there’s a note specifying that the catcher can’t do it if he doesn’t have the ball, hence, by the, um transitive property or something, uh, you’re right.

Yeah, flipping between this and the hilarity of the Cowgirls not putting any points up against the Panthers,

Lidge is going to get back at those who hurt him by hunting them down, one after another, and insulting them – “You’re a jerk, Pence – a complete kneebiter” – and then putting a fastball in their ribs.

Man, it feels like the magic number should go back up to 5 just on principle.

i agree with that…things havent looked worse
by Dlance04 on Sep 28, 2009 9:59 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
wait a minute
no runs scored on Lidge. What can that mean? He gave up 100% fewer runs than last time – thus he’s currently on pace to go scoreless from now through 2012!

Loathesome Star People
Our season a burnt-out orange case
of flailing at Texas-sized mosquitoes with bats
and unfinished, incomplete stars.
Cross-eyed and corkscrewed
We spike ourselves into a worn batters box

In honor of Yom Kippur
I deeply apologize to the Houston Astros for inflicting upon them Ed Wade, and seek forgiveness so that You-Know-Who can give the Phillies the strength for a victory over the Astros.
