Hey! a Hit! :shock:

We're lucky to only be down one run.

And there's a run. :x

I'm calling a grand slam here.

Loading them up....

Get the bullpen ready.

Marqueef sucks.

He's gonna walk them loaded. :x

Wow...two straight walks. Way to go, Jason.

And there's the lead-off walk. :evil:

Wow...that was impressive. :x

Dbacks down in order in their half. One to the 2nd, no score in Arizona.

I like Vin Scully.

Brewers down in order in the top of the 1st in Arizona.

Time to get a win, fellas!

There still would be a need to DFA someone even after Sept 1 to bring up Blanco. Blanco by nature of being on the 60-day DL was not counted as being on the 40-man roster. To have him on the team, someone would have to have been removed from the 40-man. This move of DFAing Hill was going to have to happen sooner or later. By doing it now, Blanco is eligible for the postseason roster.

Hah, that's profane. But you have to admit it's funny.

Just for fun, I voted the Phanatic as the the face of the Phillies.

So, what's wrong with Lilly today?

Many of the people leaving probably live in the burbs and have decided they have to go to work tomorrow and even if they play it's too late to stick around.

The tarp is still on the field and there are huge puddles in the outfield.

Correct.

That radar looks ugly!

There was a lot of rain coming down when they cut back to Wrigley.
