    They did get 11 hits off Hamels, although only 1 was an extra base hit. And a few of them were just bloopers, and seeing eye singles. But admittedly, the Phils got their share of them last night too.

    I must admit, as much as I despise the Mets, I do enjoy these series. Its like a playoff intensity in midseason. But I suppose that is what rivalries are all about.

    Jerry needs to go. Tonight's loss is totally his fault. Taking out Parnell for Takahashi was such a bad move. Even though he's a lefty and three lefties were coming up, they were hitting .440 off him coming into the game!!! Don't play the fucking matchup you asshole Jerry! You should know that Takahashi can't get lefties out! This is the second time this season you've done this with Takahashi. Seriously, this is fucked and its time for Jerry to go.

    Phillies Jerseys Buried at Citi Field?

    By Mike Silva ~ June 11th, 2009. Filed under: Uncategorized.

    Over at mikefrancesa.com the moderator received an odd, but interesting, email from someone who claims to have worked on Citi Field. Take a read:

    I work for Hunt Construction. I was a foreman at Citi Field. There are 3 Phillies Jerseys buried in the ball park. As a lifelong Phillies fan, I felt it was my duty to jinx the Mets. I’m not telling you my real name for obvious reasons. The jerseys are:

    1. Under the Fanwalk bricks.
    2. Jackie Robinson Rotunda in the vicinity of the Ticket Office window.
    3. Near the vicinity of the ‘47 Shop near right field.

    Obviously, this is a suspect email. The individual claims to be a foreman on the project. I would think that would narrow down who it could possibly be. The Yankees had this situation when someone tried to bury a Red Sox jersey at the new Yankee Stadium. That situation was averted; of course the Mets would be clueless to such shenanigans. In the end does it really matter? Regardless, it will make for great folk lore.

    It’s another example about how pathetically obsessed the city of Philadelphia is with New York and the Mets.

    That last line should be deleted :x :(

    Pedro's asking price is too high for teams. It's one thing to give an incentive-laden five million deal to him, quite another to guarantee that amount, especially when you can't guarantee how healthy he is, which we saw during the last three years of his deal.

    It appears his velocity was down. He threw 25 pitches at 90 or above and none over 91. In the nine-run fourth, his final 13 pitches were in the mid to high 80s and only one was at 90 (the Matsui home run).

    The Santana that I've seen throws slightly harder than that and a slight loss in velocity combined with poor location/execution is a deadly combination for anyone.

    That being said, Santana's track record would lead me to believe that this was just a blip. (assuming he's not hurt).
