Well, last night's game was nine innings. That's what I asked for, and that's what I got. Jonathan Papelbon even stepped in personally to make sure the game didn't go into extras.
How nice of him.
But it's a brand new day with brand new goals! And what is today's goal? Don't get swept. Not very lofty, right? Just don't get swept! Win this one game! There were three others they could have won, but they didn't. So now they have to win this game to not get swept.
Lineup!
Cole Hamels gets the ball today for the Phillies, and Ryan Howard gets another ticket to the bench. Hopefully Darin Ruf can show us something today, since that's the entire point of this experiment.
