Phillies are dropping 8 runs on the Marlins in the 9th after being dominated all game to take an 8-2 lead (and cost Dontrelle a win). Now, we are not the Marlins, but...

 

Make it 10. Crushing loss for Florida.

LaRussa delivers another brutal slap to the face of our team ... they had a chance to rub the Cubs' face in it, but declined because we just don't matter all that much to them anymore.

Nothing like a one sided rivalry where you always get the raw end of the deal. Nothing worse than not having the respect of your rival.

Murton still keeps on hitting. At this point, how bad is Corey Patterson? He is close to having an AVG below .200. He keeps doing that and the only thing he will be good for is a pinch-runner.
