Well, in the blurb at the top of tonight’s Gameday Thread, our Fearless Leader focused on the drama of last night’s game, and announced his election to find something less stressful to do tonight—base-jumping and amateur matadoring were some of the notions he floated. His concerns were overblown, however—there was no drama tonight at all. No dramatic swings, no ups, only downs. We managed in the end to avoid being on the business end of our first shutout of the season (yay!), but we were never in it and we never threatened. Phillies starter Zack Wheeler had our number, and Philadelphia had Zach Davies’ number from the get-go, and in a rare instance when there hasn’t been a rodeo clown involved, we were unable to muster any sort of “answer back.
