I'm watching. Good pitching so far. Sure didn't expect that out of Moyer. The Phillies pen really has to be lights out, not sure if that is possible tho.

With the way the Phillies are hitting it sure doesn't look good. But atleast they get Howard up next inning. Although it may not matter if Myers can't limit the damage done.

Ryan Howard needs to learn how to protect a plate.

Phillies just did nothing hitting this series. And it's too bad cause they are a very good offensive team.

Rockies pitching was a lot better than I expected and their pen was great.

Congrats to the Rockies.

Good point. Partly cause the N.L. west hasn't exactly been tearing em up these last few years. The pitching out in the West has improved dramatically. All season long, the NL West has been about pitching.

Congrats to the Rox's! i hope they go all the way.

The Phillies want Manuel back? LOL.

Most important atbat of the season he chooses JC Romero over Brett Myers. One of the more horrible managing decisions I've ever seen. Up there with Grady Little in the 2003 ALCS.

Fire this idiot and get someone who isn't 75 years old. Get someone who doesn't decide willynilly to convert your number 1 workhorse starter into a closer. And then not use him in any important situations.

My condolences, Philadelphia.

righties were hitting sub .200 against romero and .274 against myers, also romero hasnt given up a run in 20 plus innings. also, it wasnt manuel who converted myers, he was hurt.
