    But he could have struck-out or popped up and got no RBI at all and the score would be 0-0. It's a team game. If a guy can get to third with one out and another guy grounds out to get him, that's good teamwork.
    25 million dollars a year and you consider an RBI ground out to be a good thing?

    just pointing out how dumb RBI are for judging individual performance. should be a team stat like you said.

    chooch is the man

    and Joey Votto has 3 meaningless hits in 3 games (big hit in the 9th with 2 outs nobody on and down 3-0 whohoo) but at least that makes his OBP and OPS look good :D

    when Lee is on he is unhittable.

    and who starts a game at 12:30 in the afternoon? weird time for thursdays game.

    wow i never really looked at that. everyone just gets caught up in their home record. home field advantage...advantage: philadelphia.


    remember all the years leading up to '07 this team would always win about 86 games? now we reach that mark in august like it's nothing.

    ...so much for them struggling to get to 90 wins this year huh? :)

    another good thing about being a Phils fans is every game is pretty much 3 hours or less. if i was an american league fan, specifically red sox and yankees, i'd hang myself at how long those games are. you could almost drive between boston and new york with how long those games lasts. it's awful.

    I was at the game last Wed when Kendrick sucked and Pelfrey nibbled - 3 1/2 hours I think. So painful. Imagine every game like that. Ugh.
