Learning to Flinch: Cubs at Phillies Game Thread, April 30, 2012

By Peter Lyons

The Phillies try to avoid an embarrassing series loss to the woeful Chicago Cubs tonight in Philadelphia, and will send Vance Worley to the mound against Chris Volstad, the former Marlin whose terrible numbers against the Phillies are largely due to Ryan Howard's absolute ownership (8 HRs in 26 career at bats) of him. Whoops.

Please, salvage a sweep. I beg you.

Discuss the game below.
