Sidearm? It’s pretty cool. Hard to control, I would imagine. Hard to read, too, for the hitters.

Most people just jump right in with the D-Cell, but the best battery-throwers (also known as all Philadelphians) start with the C-Cell. The smaller size allows a better grip, especially important for the beginner.
I only recommend the D-Cell for the most advanced Philadelphians. Thee 9-Volt is another interesting choice, as it’s unusual shape allows a curve-ball effect.

I wanna see it I think it’s funny, I get that they don’t want to encourage it though. I was at the game when that fat guy ran onto the field in the 9th and Cole promptly gave up a run, Werth cursed him out and gave him the death stare I have pictures and everything it was great.

BRAD LIDGE 2008 IS GONE... but so is 2009
as I have said before what we have is something inbetween ……BL is a good closer but NOT a great one … he has 5 blown saves— hell Marinao Rivera of the Yankees has 4 !!…. folks have to stop freaking out that every " Bump" BL has is a return to 2009….
Mr. Mayor, we are real wrath of God type stuff... Fire & brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers & seas boiling! 40 years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes. .The dead rising from the grave...Human sacrifice, dogs cats living together.... Mass Hysteria!
As TMac says, wow, 90 wins, 29 over .500

I would settle for 2 more wins here, then more wins, ans an unexciting 3 games in Atlanta, but I’m just a borg.

hehe
I mean, why wouldn’t Bobby put our 3 best pitchers against yours? put 2 rookie pitchers and a 2 year pitcher? it’s meaningless and also putting shitty Melky in the game, he just sucks, well that’s why Bobby has just won 1 WS in 14 playoff appearances.

He could have switched things around, not really sure why Bobby didn’t do it. I guess he is taking a bigger picture approach?
Looking forward to the Kevin Kolb era.
5-8-10...the day the Purdue Boilermakers basketball team won the 2011 NCAA Championship!!
He figures they might lose these games anyway. So save big pitchers to beat worse teams and go for WC

That’s what seemed to make more sense. Making the playoffs as the wild card team would be fine and the Braves wouldn’t have to face the Phillies in the first round. No reason to change the rotation to overexpose Lowe and Hudson to the Phillies batters.

I think the reason Bobby did it
Was because he wanted us to win the games we SHOULD win on the road, so he went with the big three against the Mets. I’m assuming he didn’t want to put too much weight on one series in Philly and wanted to concentrate on getting the games we knew we could win. That and Jurrjens didn’t inform the Braves of his apparent knee “tweak” he had on Friday until Saturday. Beachy pitched relatively well tonight, though I think he had 10 flyballs and had the wind been blowing out, it would have caused a lot more damage. For his sake, I hope he sees it as a confidence booster for his future. The error killed us.
True Phils hit a lot of hard balls off the kid but he held on

I felt like he was just hanging on the whole night
I was thinking it was a bit cruel to throw a rookie in in that situation, but it shows you how little confidence the Braves have in Kawakami!
at least Beachy made it close
with Kawakami it would have been a blowout.

Yea he was good, wonder how he’ll do next year, gotta keep those flyballs in

He was throwing his off-speed up in the zone
Very nerve wracking watching him pitch, but he really did pitch well under the circumstances. The error is what really killed the Braves, which is surprising considering the talk going into the series is that we’d be killed by the pitching. This still has a chance to happen of course, but even if you’re outmatched, you have to play to your strengths and our defense has been solid all year. Not the time to make the errors.
yea solid defense kept the game close early, freak things happen

Such a bad season for KK
Had no run support for half the season. Then after that, he just….sucked. I would say his days with the Braves are over.
Dunn has been good so far
I’m still in shock Farnsworth got em 1-2-3.
Beachy in part benefited from having not been seen by our line up before. To his credit, he did well until the batters had “seen” him.
"We are the borg. Resistance is futile."
I thought about this
Its definitely an advantage for the pitcher the first time he faces a team.
Maybe Bobby's really smart
And knows that unproven rookies making their major league debut more often than not will no-hit the Phils into the 8th…

That is amazing. It has to be close to the best ever for a Phillies team over that many games. 1993/1976/1977? Can’t imagine another year with such a long high winning percentage.
by phillyinportland on Sep 20, 2010 10:01 PM EDT up reply actions
93 Phillies were on fire at the start of the year. I bet they’d be close.

’77 Phils went 43-16 in June & August.
and
’76 Phils went 44-15 from April-ish to July.

Thanks for looking those up. I figured there had to be a stretch like this year’s in there somewhere. So if this year’s team has a 42-15 period currently and the 1993 team went 44-17, this year’s run is slightly better. But the thing about 1993 was they went on for another 15 games or so and reached a peak of 51-21 on June 25th, winning percentage of .708 through 72 games. If the Phillies finish this year with seven more wins, 97-65, they will have played the final 68 games at what is probably an all-time team record. 97-65 was the record the 1993 Phillies had, by the way, and was surpassed only by the ‘76-’77 teams.

That last slider to Heyward – wow, haven’t seen a slider fall away like that these days in baseball. That was a classic slider
That slider had “Don’t get too cocky, kid” written all over it.

I’m sure Cole was getting squezed by the ump tonight for 3 reasons.
1. Cole was thrown out of a game by this joke of an ump in Toronto
2. Cole struck out 6 not one of them was looking.
3. MLB live’s pitch tracker had pitches consistantly called balls to Braves hitters strikes to Phillies hitters.
