John Mayberry Jr: Give me more playing time!
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:17 PM
Nice job Mayberry!
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:17 PM
Nice hustle, AAAberry!
Posted by: GTown_Dave | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:17 PM
True, Iceman.
Nice, Mayberry!
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:17 PM
Yay-berry!
Posted by: gobaystars! | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:17 PM
Jimmy=Red Light Player
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:17 PM
If Mayberry had just broke hard, he would have likely scored there...tough ball to read.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:18 PM
Franzke sounded so surprised when he said "And it's falling! It's a base hit!"
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:18 PM
That's our luck that a single with a fast runner on 2nd base would hang up in the air like that and keep Mayberry from scoring.
Damn.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:18 PM
Had Mayberry looked at the 3B coach instead of the ball, he scores there.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:19 PM
Please Polanco. No GIDP.
Posted by: Iceman | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:19 PM
I actually agree with Wheels, though. Mayberry sees it right off the bat, and that did look like the LF might have had a play.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:20 PM
AAberry. Come on! Gotta score on that. Sammy read it perfect and sent him. AAberry didn't look at Sammy.
Posted by: gobaystars! | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:20 PM
It would be so good to get a W tonight. Come on, Phils!
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:20 PM
All's well that ends well.
Posted by: GTown_Dave | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:21 PM
I was secretly hoping for a wild pitch!!
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:21 PM
Wild pitch! I'll take it! 3-2 Phillies!
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:21 PM
OH YEAH! Take it any way you can get it!
Posted by: Iceman | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:21 PM
YEAH BABY!!!!
That's how we drive in runs in Philadelphia!!!
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:21 PM
RBI Venters.
Posted by: donc | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:21 PM
National League Baseball!! Send runners! Make Thing Happen!
Posted by: gobaystars! | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:22 PM
Papelbon 2 inning save???
Please!
Though that could take 2-3 hours easy.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:22 PM
and Vic against a lefty for maybe an insurance run. Go get 'em Vic!
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:22 PM
Our best offensive weapon: the other team's errors and wild pitches.
Posted by: bay_area_phan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:22 PM
The Braves' BP is the only one in MLB to record 0 losses to date this season. Let's change that tonight, shall we?
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:22 PM
Somebody inform Vic that this is his contract year.
Posted by: Iceman | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:22 PM
Fata-- good job not saying it and jinxing it
Posted by: Phatti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:22 PM
I can see the headline already:
"Phils Win On Polanco's Clutch Strike Out!"
Posted by: GTown_Dave | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:23 PM
Woohoo!
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:24 PM
Game of inches...
Posted by: Scott | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:24 PM
Bah! Crap. That is a huge run out there.
Posted by: Iceman | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:24 PM
Damn! Would have been another run.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:24 PM
Polly=Professional Hitter.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:25 PM
I'm hoping for a double here.
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:25 PM
Oh yeah Gtown. Like Polly didnt know exactly what he was doing. Smuckin fart he is.
Posted by: donc | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:25 PM
Pence<>Professional Hitter
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:26 PM
Pencetastic!
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:26 PM
Woo-hoo! Can't say I saw this coming.
Posted by: bay_area_phan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:26 PM
NICE!!!
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:26 PM
But I'll take a single! A 2-run lead! Woohoo!
is that enough? Qualls won't blow it 2 nights in a row, right?
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:26 PM
Yeah Pence!
The runs score either way. G-Town's excuse for b*tching is out the window.
Posted by: Iceman | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:26 PM
A veritable offensive explosion tonight.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:27 PM
Ohhhh. The Braves' bullpen. Soooo Scary. Sooo good. Ooooh
Posted by: gobaystars! | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:27 PM
Vic stealing there was the key to all that. If he's not stealing, that's like hit right to Uggla, and inning over.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:27 PM
Iceman: I wasn't the guy trying to run Pence out of town.
Posted by: GTown_Dave | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:27 PM
Venters wasn't at his best tonight, but wasn't too terrible. In my mind, he and Venters are the best 1-2 bullpen punch in baseball.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:28 PM
Mayberry gave them a break and they gave it back.
Posted by: gobaystars! | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:29 PM
RFD started that inning with his legs. By getting to 2B he put pressure on Venters.
Posted by: awh | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:33 PM
And the Devils tie it up...damn.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:33 PM
Oh, come on, Qualls!
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:34 PM
You know...Qualls probably can blow it twice in two nights.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:34 PM
I liked Qualls better when he pitched well.
Posted by: Scott | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:34 PM
Oh Christ. McCann against Qualls.
Posted by: Iceman | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:34 PM
Wow...low strike there.
I'll take it.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:34 PM
Listen Brian McCann, I like you, but don't shake your head like that. That was a definitely a strike.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:35 PM
This is the very situation, btw, where a second lefty would really come in handy.
Nevermind.
Posted by: Iceman | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:35 PM
Quallstastic!!!
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:35 PM
Ok, Qualls, nice job inducing the DP ball.
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:35 PM
I like you even more now, McCann.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:36 PM
Um, the gun read 97 on that pitch.
Can't be right.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:37 PM
Just one more out, Qualls. You can do it.
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:37 PM
I forgot about Savery. I meant, two LHP that are MLB-caliber LOOGYs.
Posted by: Iceman | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:37 PM
Diaz. Holding my breath.
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:38 PM
Not to go unnoticed: Mayberry made a nice play to hold Freeman to a single. Without that play, there's no DP & Freeman probably scores on Uggla's single.
Posted by: bay_area_phan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:38 PM
Will s/one please shut wheels up? Please?
He gives me a headache -- where's the volume on this remote?
I have qualms about Qualls!
Posted by: Let's eat | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:38 PM
Qualls suddenly unable to find the zone.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:39 PM
Nothing cooler than bringing the go-ahead runner to the plate.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:39 PM
I see how it is. Now that Lidge is gone, Qualls has to be on the team as the resident "guy who makes my blood pressure skyrocket" guy.
Posted by: Iceman | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:39 PM
WTF Chad...throw a damn strike.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:40 PM
Take him out mid batter. He just can't throw a friggin strike right now.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:40 PM
Looks like I'm going to have to start chewing rolaids when Qualls warms up
Posted by: Scotch Man | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:40 PM
4 out save--bring in Paps
Posted by: Let's eat | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:41 PM
If Francisco reaches, you've got to bring in Papelbon. But he probably isn't even warming up.
Posted by: AFish | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:41 PM
Nice SO pitch.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:41 PM
96??? Damn Qualls.
Posted by: Iceman | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:41 PM
I can let my breath out now. Whew!
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:42 PM
Can Chad Qualls really hit 96-97?
Hot gun?
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:42 PM
Get
John
Mayberry
[at least] 250 PAs
by the ASB.
Then, decide.
His defense alone is worth it!! He's the 2nd coming of Garry Lee Maddox in the OF. C'mon, Chollie, make it happen!
Posted by: cut_fastball | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:42 PM
Pitchfx is usually pretty accurate and its saying the same.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:42 PM
Never a doubt... Qualms does ... er, Qualls does it
Posted by: Let's eat | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:42 PM
Chad Qualls' numbers for that inning:
WHIP: 3.00
BAA: .500
ERA: 0.00
Posted by: bay_area_phan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:42 PM
Qualls hit 96-97 in 4-5 games last year too. Its not regular but he can occasionally do it per the velocity charts.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:44 PM
The guy has very good stuff but he could be Clout's exhibit A. Good stuff isn't that great without command.
Posted by: donc | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:44 PM
Great ab by Pierre
Posted by: Let's eat | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:45 PM
Did Hinske play for ever AL East team?
He was definitely on the Rays, too.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:45 PM
Didn't play for the Orioles.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:46 PM
Hinske hasn't played for Baltimore...yet.
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:46 PM
Wow, Freddy! That was unexpected.
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:47 PM
This lineup is a singles machine.
Posted by: clout | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:47 PM
Hey Murph, I've got another reason why Papelbon came to Philly.
In fact, I have 50 million other reasons.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:48 PM
Posted by: Scott | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:48 PM
Ok, Papelbon. Lock it down.
Posted by: GBrettFan | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:48 PM
My cat knows more about baseball than TBag.

AAAberry.
Posted by: gobaystars! | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:49 PM
I like the way Medlen wears his cap.
Posted by: clout | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:49 PM
Flyers imploding.
Posted by: donc | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:50 PM
Okay...the 9th is starting at 9:51 PM.
When will it end?
Posted by: NEPP | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:51 PM
Warm air tonight. Like to see Papelbon with a little extra life on the fastball tonight.
Posted by: Fatalotti | Tuesday, May 01, 2012 at 09:51 PM
Why couldn't nay berry be consistent?
