You ever looked a fish in the eye? Just hauled one out of the sea and stared it down while it gasped and struggled for life. But you wouldn't give it to him. No. You knew that fish was you, flopping and writhing, long without its dignity, while a crowd of gawkers watched it slowly die.
The Phillies lost to the Marlins on Friday night.
It was Miami's eleventh win in twelve games, while the Phillies dropped their fourth in five. The Phillies danced around a comeback at one point, and even saw Maikel Franco crawl out of his hole at the plate, but in the end, they were no match for the raw, organic home run fuel flowing in the veins of Giancarlo Stanton.
