Could you talk about it more announcer guy? I'm expecting a photoshopped pic of Halladay on an SI cover when they return from commercial....

TBF, I wouldn't want to expose Chapman right now either.

Shut us down actually.

yeah but utley and howard hit bombs off wood sans wind

Very true. We did what we had to do though, work the counts on the starter and get ahead early with a big inning.
Leave the rest up to the Doc

it's how we've won all year - get a few runs and let the pitching get it done. I'm cool with it.

Thank you. If this pans out I will have no need for porn anymore.

Better defense by the Reds in that second inning would have resulted in a 1-0 game to this point. The Reds starting pitcher was let down by his defense behind him. So what looks like a dominating hitting performance by the Phillie's, was really just a mental mistake by the reds trying to get that out at second base rather than going to first.

Rolen could be Andy Dufesne... crawling through sewage to get out of prison (Philly) and end up in paradise (STL)

On October 8, 1956, Don Larsen of the New York Yankees threw a perfect game in Game 5 of that year's World Series against the Brooklyn Dodgers. Larsen is still the only person in Major League history to throw a no-hitter of any kind during a postseason game of any kind.

Halladay's perfect game retroactively voided because poor opposing defense contributed to our run.
