Phillies (Wheeler) vs Red Sox (TBD): 5/12/26, 6:45pm

Brez now scrambling in the bleachers to recruit enough bodies to fill out a Nine so they can finish the game.

What's their LBR? (no one squeezed into the box seats could move with their arms folded and pasted across their chests).

Remember the old cliche. When your team is a lemon, make lemonade.

And then mix it with some vodka.

warning track power

Not lucky + Not good = High draft pick

I really detest ESPN/Disney and their greed, in years past MLB WOULD USUALLY put on one free game on their website almost everyday, and the first week of the season was free for all games. Since ESPN WEASELED their way into the MLB deal, there has been not a single game this season yet and I doubt there is going to be given the corporate greed destroying the planet all in the name of worthless paper posing as a dollar. What a scam

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Any MLB team with a weaker offense than the Sox should be ashamed of itself.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Story should crowd the plate more.

I am really struggling to understand this; maybe I need just another little ... tap.

At least this game is moving quickly and with virtually no LOBs, nor Boston runs.

Bello is again actually pitching well  and if he had support could make a winner out of this one.   Fat chance

[Tedballgame]

Typical Durbin AB. Gets to 3-2 and takes a fastball right down the middle begging for a walk. He is horrible.

[alsoason]

I would not go watch this team if they were giving away the tickets.

[Tedballgame]

Thought Abreu tied it up

 

[vegasbob]

Warning track power.  The cutting edge between victory and defeat

[Tedballgame]

It would have been a HR in every other MLB stadium except Fenway!

[FredLynn]

2-1. Game over. This team stinks. I can’t even watch them much anymore.

Teams use to fear coming into Fenway

We declared the game over after the second batter for the Phils

bad move here leaving bello in to start the 8th

[Tedballgame]

Bello pitched well. No run support, as usual.

[iortiz]

Seems like this formula for Bello is working out. At least a positive thing.

ok just for Turner

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Another good job of long relief by Bello. He can't be referred to as a starter if he doesn't start the games 

[Tedballgame]

How in the world do you let Durbin swing away there????? Bunt, bunt, bunt.

[vegasbob]

Yes, turns out to be an unproductive AB . Better than a DP though

[vegasbob]

Wong is out

[vegasbob]

Got to quit hitting At'em balls

[Tedballgame]

Cedanne helped the pitcher out there.

[Tedballgame]

Another putrid offensive night.

[vegasbob]

Swung at a pitch above his eyes
