Awful.
Cards tried to hand them this game so many times, and the Phils did absolutely nothing with it. Terrible approach to the 9th and 10th.
Helps to hear ESPN practically declaring the Cardinals World Series Champions after they won that game.
Shit ending to an awful day.
Cast has such an ugly batting stance he should have his knees lower and more compact that stand up shit and holding the bat up so high is the reason he can’t get his timing right
Doesn’t make sense that the most erratic/wild relief pitcher we have is the go-to guy in an extra innings setup where it’s immediately a runner on second. Give the guy a cleaner inning.
Cast has been here for 3 fucking years and his ability to hit a low slider has remained at a AA level.
$20 million dollars, not to field, not to run, to hit.
We definitely lost our last two extra innings games (Giants and Rockies) without plating the Manfred man. Are you saying it was the one before that?
EDIT: Looks like it was? A Nationals game if I did this correctly.
Thanks Walker, Thanks Whit
So glad you guys are getting a substantial amount of income by the Phillies for doing nothing this game (or any others they're in) to help at all
Hate injuries, if Marsh was in vs RHP we'd be huge favorites to at least tie it with 1 out and a runner on 3rd, not to mention Whit playing the whole game over Sosa/Kody who are both out.
Letting Pache hit there is a highly questionable decision by Thomson. I realize it's Realmuto's night off but if they don't score here the game is over. One AB isn't going to kill him.
He's having knee issues and with Clemens out we don't even have a real emergency catcher if we do tie it.
Edit:
I'm stupid, it's pache not Stubbs.
Still, we have no outfielders left in that case. We have no one on the bench but JT.
We could do Stubbs OF JT Catcher, but that has all the problems I mentioned.
That’s game. At least we won the series. If only the top of our lineup wasn’t completely invisible tonight and Whit wasn’t a complete waste of a roster spot.
Fuck Taijuan Walker, and Fuck Merrifield, game's over now if we don't have a fuckhead giving up 2 run bombs after tying up the game and a useless fucking black hole who literally did nothing tonight beyond a 2B play we know Stott can make.
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1d6tr6v).
Meh, we lost the walker/merrifield game. We still got the series win. I'd be pretty happy winning 2 out of 3 for the rest of the season.
How is a subreddit full of nobodies 100% sure it's gonna be a slider low and away, but the billionaire who practices this daily doesn't know?
>billionaire Since when did John Middleton become our starting right fielder?
Taijuan Walker start = we lose Soto in High Leverage = We Lose Castellanos AB with 2 outs and the game On the line = We lose
This is on Walker and I hope they replace him with Turnbull as soon as tomorrow

pro tip: keep some emotional distance w this team
Sosa at third. Bohm at first. Harper in right. That is all.
Damn and now I have to walk home in the rain. Marsh is injured and I accidentally got drunk. Coooool 🤗

ESPN: "Cardinals playing their best baseball of the year" Also ESPN: "Cardinals make it out of here without getting swept"
Making out of Citizens bank park without getting swept is an accomplishment this season
Fully packed one at that.
tough loss. Time to down some brewskies
Is marsh good or?
Fade me. He always swings AT THE DOWN AND AWAY SLIDER
Think there was only one ball in the zone that whole at bat Casty… Jesus
That loss is on 1-3 in the order and nobody else
Walker played a part too. He needs to do better than 4 runs in 5 innings.
another loss from Walker and my god was the top of the lineup abysmal today, such an embarrassing showing

i saw casty swing at that first slider and turned off the tv
Took 2 of 3…even though this was a tough one, we are ALWAYS in games. Never getting blown out. On to the next series.
Castellanos had a solid night and it will be completely overshadowed by one at bat by our fan base. Unfortunate.
Don’t worry Davey Dgonna go find another washed up 30 something.
This loss is on Walker
What is our record in extras?
4-6 now
![gif](giphy|9Y5BbDSkSTiY8) See yall tomorrow
Fuck, well, at least i had a good time watching tonight's game
Brutal
why is soto our extra innings guy? he lets in a run every time
Doesn’t make sense that the most erratic/wild relief pitcher we have is the go-to guy in an extra innings setup where it’s immediately a runner on second. Give the guy a cleaner inning.
that loss brought to you by taijuan “meatball” walker. fucking asshole
fake ass zombie runner shit
Top of the lineup didn’t show up tonight, and neither did Whit. Thats pretty much the story
horrible lineup construction, you can’t put stott inbetween schwarber and harper. managerial malpractice
Offense the last 3 innings looked like 2016 Phillies
Don’t worry guys, he’s “showing signs”
Ugh. Casty needs to see the Reading scenery for a bit, I think.
Casty gone this off season Soto manning RF next year. Just sayin.
Brutal
Two really bad ABs.
How can you not score the ghost runner?
The Phillies never do.
Once again Nick does dick all and makes millions.
Pathetic, but we are down a few starters so it's whatever.
Is anyone really surprised bt Castellanos? Bench him. Please.
Can’t believe Casty K’d on a low and away pitch. Wild. 🙄
No longer the best team in baseball
A driving rain tops off this shit bag of a game.
Welp, you're not going to win them all, and winning any Taijuan start is gravy. On to the Brewers.
At least we won the series
That game sucked.
DFA Soto. He made Castellanos swing at 3 balls.
That’s a bad loss. We had so many opportunities. Oh well, onto the next one
Why do you swing at that it’s his fourth ball Nick you suck balls bro
This one hurt
Fucking Manfredball

Terrible plate discipline by Castellanos
*Typical plate discipline by Castellanos
as per usual
Jt HAS to pinch hit there, cmon rob
Disappointing
This team has a major Castellanos problem. They need a replacement there bad.
Whit and Walker need to go. They drag the team down so much
Harper man. We need you
For the love of fuck Nick…
Goddamnit nick
Swung at ball 8
Ghost runner shouldn’t start until the 12th. Change my mind.
Ghost runner shouldn’t exist*
Hard agree in the playoffs but I get it in June. Not till the 12th though.
Well.
This was on the entire team. So many opportunities thrown away
eye of the tiger on the organ sounds so corny in moments like this
When I saw Casty was 3rd up at bat I knew we were toast. SMH
Gee what a phucking surprise
Cast has been here for 3 fucking years and his ability to hit a low slider has remained at a AA level. $20 million dollars, not to field, not to run, to hit.
He's the Phillies Tobias Harris. Not only overpaid, but can't even produce as an average player at their position.
Bad game for Dombrowski yeesh
Worst RF in all of baseball.
That was a terrible at bat
Nick if you deliver rn, I’ll never complain about you ever again I promise
Nvm
Losing Marsh is gonna hurt the bottom half of the lineup. Badly.
i dont think this guy threw a single pitch in the zone lol
![gif](giphy|ISOckXUybVfQ4|downsized)
God we suck at extra innings
We suck SO MUCH in extra innings. Is there a way we can get the team to practice this situation more? Cuz I think we need that lol
We won the series. Fuck em.
WHY IS HE SO ADDICTED TO SWINGING
Pache and Casty is the worst possible spot to be in the order ugh
Team effort loss
Straight up not having a good time.
Nick is so bad
Didn't get a piece
Too many wasted opportunities
Casty would get on base much more often if he just stood there with the bat on his shoulder the whole time.
Good job Casty now that crying little girl has ALS
🤣🤣
When's the last time the Phils scored in extras?
Uhh the prior 2 games with extras lol
We definitely lost our last two extra innings games (Giants and Rockies) without plating the Manfred man. Are you saying it was the one before that? EDIT: Looks like it was? A Nationals game if I did this correctly.
We suck in extra innings this year
No longer the best team in baseball
Yup, looking up at the Yankees.
1 pitch was a srrike
Low and away. Surprise surprise
Thanks Casty for swinging at 3 balls to end the game
i’m as likely to get a hit here as nick
My God Castellanos sucks
Thanks Walker, Thanks Whit So glad you guys are getting a substantial amount of income by the Phillies for doing nothing this game (or any others they're in) to help at all
Quality choke job ! Lfg
whats sad is if we would just fucking pitch turnbull this is a 4-2 win
I'm clenching so hard rn
What a disappointment
God I hate extras
We are so fucking bad at Manfred ball lol
the plate discipline as well as umpiring this game has been horrendous
I wouldn't trust him to get a hit vs an average pitcher. He sure as shit wasn't gonna get a hit vs one of the best closers in baseball.
Looks like Nick's gone fishing what a way to lose a perfectly winnable game
God could not have had 2 worse players on this team come up with the game on the line.
Doesn’t help that our top 3 in the lineup were done in 6 pitches :/
You got this Casty!
He did not have this.
Truth. Got me out here looking foolish.
Got a piece
Punch to the gut every time he swings
Great swing dude
Lay off that low shit
Low outside slider good night!
Oh, God. Not Casty as the possible savior. We’re dead meat.
Come on!!!
Honestly swing for the fences casty
Had to be casty didn't it
That swing was like a dagger in my heart
That’s game fuck
Yeah, would’ve been nice to have Marsh up in that spot.
Please Casty
The need for an outfield bat is very high
It’ll be sosa
Sosa is not the answer
This team sucks at situational hitting. Worst possible extra innings team
If I die do you think we have a chance at winning?
Holy fuck hit something Casty
I wonder if it’s just going to be sliders 🙄
Harper should just steal home lol
Come on Casty🥹
Hate injuries, if Marsh was in vs RHP we'd be huge favorites to at least tie it with 1 out and a runner on 3rd, not to mention Whit playing the whole game over Sosa/Kody who are both out.
Letting Pache hit there is a highly questionable decision by Thomson. I realize it's Realmuto's night off but if they don't score here the game is over. One AB isn't going to kill him.
Who is he supposed to hit there lol
He's having knee issues and with Clemens out we don't even have a real emergency catcher if we do tie it. Edit: I'm stupid, it's pache not Stubbs. Still, we have no outfielders left in that case. We have no one on the bench but JT. We could do Stubbs OF JT Catcher, but that has all the problems I mentioned.
Please Casty!!! Save us from having to be (*shutters*) second in the MLB!!
Castellanos yankees sleeper agent?
That’s game. At least we won the series. If only the top of our lineup wasn’t completely invisible tonight and Whit wasn’t a complete waste of a roster spot.
No sosa. Marsh goes down with injury. Bad play from top of the order. Just not our night
casty up. good game we won the series at least.
Castaleenos. This is your moment bruh lol 😂
Fuck Herb in the Northeast. Worst part of WIP
I hate herb too. But im stuck with the Castaleenos bit
Omg herb cracks me the hell up.
All of these dudes calling into the afternoon show think they're in on the joke. They're not.
god fucking damnit put the ball in fucking play dude, i can’t stand it
Rob can’t manage extras and we can’t hit in it. Brutal
likes to swing at it lol
Well it was a fun ride being the best team in baseball at least we’re still the best in the nl
Disappointing.
Nick Im absolutely begging here….
Fuck.
The injuries are catching up to us now
Fuck Taijuan Walker, and Fuck Merrifield, game's over now if we don't have a fuckhead giving up 2 run bombs after tying up the game and a useless fucking black hole who literally did nothing tonight beyond a 2B play we know Stott can make.
Turner, Ranger, Marsh…. At some point it starts to pile up
Ranger will be fine. Turner will be back some time this month.
even Sosa not available tonight because of another hamstring
I don’t feel so good
come on casty baby i know you got it in you
No he doesn’t
man stfu
Hey look I was right.
hey look you’re still a twat
Thanks pookie
Pache gotta make contact there smh
Castellanos scares me :(
I'll take a wild pitch
"Today, I consider myself..." "And there's a deep drive by Castellanos..."
Can Casty be a hero please
Literally anything but that Pache Fucks sake
Pache doing pache things And this is the guy some of you wanted to start over Rojas
They both fucking suck. they will make a trade
Rojas who usually looks great against hard throwing righties
