Another lifeless performance against the Braves.

Maybe they will start to care when the Braves eventually overtake them.

[wrench248]

15 straight innings without a run and only five total hits.

[BelmontShore]

The cluelessness at the plate, up and down the lineup, is both mystifying and infuriating.

Team is just full of guess hitters at this point. Opposing teams aren’t throwing the Phillies too many fastballs and the hitters consistently show they will chase the breaking balls out of the zone. Until the hitters adapt, the offense will stay in neutral.

Finally a hitter attacks a pitch down the middle.

Boom goes Marsh!

4-3

[BelmontShore]

Hahahaha.

Of course.

That came out of nowhere.

[wrench248]

Great inning by Kerkering.

[wrench248]

Boom goes Castellanos

5-4 Phillies

[BelmontShore]

That's just crazy.
