“Welcome home from work! Go play with your kids or talk to a neighbor or just frolic in the sunshine!” That’s what I imagine the Phillies were collectively telling us with this game. You probably couldn’t watch the beginning and by the time you could watch there wasn’t a point.
This game was over early. I could tell because in the third inning John Kruk suggested that Daniel Descalso run from first on a 3-2 count “just to work on things.” You know, because the Phillies are a summer-long spring training squad. The score at that point was 5-0.
