This Week in Phillies - The Threequel

I’m not sure how many weeks it will be before I just write this post in the same vein of home team’s fans when the opposing individual players in their lineup are announced, and just submit the post as: “SUCKS!” That I’m even doing the math on it says less than great things about the week past.

Since last weeks’ installment the Phillies have gone 3-4 in alternating games, which, while frustrating, isn’t on its face horrible. The way they went about it, however, has been less than inspiring. In those 7 games, the Phillies allowed 43 runs, including Wheeler’s 8-inning, one-hit, nine-strikeout, one-run beast of a game on Monday, while scoring 30.
