Phillies verse Braves April 21 2010

Tonight’s Theme
I need a W after last night…..
2nd Inning

What a catch By Victorino in the 2nd.

3rd Inning
Come on Jason and Raul.  Utley and Howard on first and second with one out.  NOTTA.
Halladay is dealing.
4th Inning
3 up 3 Down.
One hit for the Braves.  Not worried.
5th Inning
No O-ffense for the Fightens.
What D-fense. Castro steals a base hit from Heyward with the help of an amazing snag by Howard at firstbase.
6th Inning
Lets Tack on Runs.
Spilled my drink on couch.  My wife will not like that. Lets hope she does not notice.
The Big Boy, Howard, scores from first from a gapper by Werth.
Base running blunder. But the Surge feels it was to avoid a double play.  Not sure about that.
Braves still scoreless
7th Inning
Palonco might be hurt.  He is pulled from the game. 
Bases Loaded and 1 out.  Wheels says it ridic how Heyward takes pitches.  Can Halladay pitch out of this jam? YES = 4-6-3 Double Play.  Diving catch and toss by Utley, Castor to Howard. 3 Outs.  WOW.
8th Inning
Where are the Bats?
1 out and Hinske on second from a BS double. 2-0 to Nate McClouth.  Dribbler to second. 2 Down, but Hinske  advances to third.  I will take that. Prado verse Halladay. Prado Down.  The Doc pervails.
9th Inning
Here we go.  Please not again.
Meet of the order: Chipper (Larry), McCann, Heyward.  Holy-Howard diving catch.  Halladay covers first.  One Out. Incredible Play.  Howard again. 2 Down.  3 Down.  Nice play by the rook at third.
Final Thought
Defense.  Fightens did not give away any outs, in fact, they stole a few.  Halladay pitches a gem.  4th W of the year.  3 game Losing streak is snaphu.
