What a crappy game, all three of their runs came on such BS plays...

[Rocco]

Great work by El Blimpo to strike out looking to end the game. Here comes the "here comes the meltdown" posts.

[Rocco]

Inge is called up today and is starting. Is Hurdle on drugs or trying to get fired?

Or maybe he knows that someone with a solid career of AL hitting experience under his belt will have wildly inflated stats against the inferior NL

[Rocco]

Jose Tabata is a bucket of fail.

[Rocco]

Basura Caliente looks at strike 3 with two runners on base. Sigh.

[Rocco]

You won't believe this, but Locke walked someone and got himself into trouble.

[Rocco]

Who should be shot into space first once Liriano is back- Locke or Sanchez?

[Beveridge]

Both?

[Rocco]

41 pitches for Locke and not out of the 2nd, mostly because he refuses to throw strikes.

[jimreb]

Ugh, leadoff double about to go to waste

[Lt. Dish]

I hate loathe the Phillies so, so much. Always have, always will.

35 years and counting.

I shouldn't say hate. Loathe sounds better. But, eh, semantics.

[jimreb]

INGE, what a great move to bring him up

[Lt. Dish]

Yeah! Nice! 1-0, good guys.

[Rocco]

I always believed in Inge.

[jimreb]

Now if we could only send Barmes somewhere.

[Rocco]

Mortal lock that the Pirates aren't leading to start the 5th, right?

I was just going to the say the good news is we have a lead, the bad news is we gave Jeff Locke a lead.

[Rocco]

Yup, leadoff triple. I hate Jeff Locke so much.

Lead off triple. Here we go.

[Rocco]

The good news is Chaz Morton made it threw 4 innings today in Altoona.

[NashvilleCat]

Inge bringing it. Good on the old man.

[Rocco]

They got out of that mess. Locke will take that as a challenge.

[NashvilleCat]

Inge going round the horn. Holy Cow!

[jimreb]

Way to go Locke.....I can live with him as a fifth starter, now if McDonald can pitch half decent and Liriano can give us something as a 4th starter, this team will be in business.
