Takin' Care of Bidness


Tonight, the Phils didn't play particularly well, especially offensively, but just like Tuesday night, they did enough to win. It was great to see some well pitched games this series, including tonight's gem from Hamels, but is anyone getting a bit concerned with the offense? Over the entire Nats series, the Phils struck out a whopping 36 times and scored only 9 runs. Chase and Victorino can't get back soon enough.

The Mets and Braves also lost tonight cutting the Phils' deficit in the NL East to 3 games. Things are looking up for the Phils as they head across state to face the Pirates. J.D. Durbin replaces Adam Eaton in the rotation for Friday night's game. We'll see this one turns out. I don't have a good feeling about Durbin lately.
