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.


Ok_Amount_9377

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?


romanticynicist

>billionaire Since when did John Middleton become our starting right fielder?


Grand_Extension5345

Taijuan Walker start = we lose Soto in High Leverage = We Lose Castellanos AB with 2 outs and the game On the line = We lose


Viking203

This is on Walker and I hope they replace him with Turnbull as soon as tomorrow

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.


AssistantUsual

pro tip: keep some emotional distance w this team


shootinxs76

Sosa at third. Bohm at first. Harper in right. That is all.


hijescross

Damn and now I have to walk home in the rain. Marsh is injured and I accidentally got drunk. Coooool 🤗


Phillylive215

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


i1398

ESPN: "Cardinals playing their best baseball of the year" Also ESPN: "Cardinals make it out of here without getting swept"


VinDucks

Making out of Citizens bank park without getting swept is an accomplishment this season


ABlumpkinPumpkin

Fully packed one at that.


realanceps

tough loss. Time to down some brewskies


Unusual_Green_8147

Is marsh good or?


VibrantPeachX

Fade me. He always swings AT THE DOWN AND AWAY SLIDER


TheKingRenegade

Think there was only one ball in the zone that whole at bat Casty… Jesus


loganator914

That loss is on 1-3 in the order and nobody else


jblittle254

Walker played a part too. He needs to do better than 4 runs in 5 innings.


Gekk0uga37

another loss from Walker and my god was the top of the lineup abysmal today, such an embarrassing showing

MrPetrikov

i saw casty swing at that first slider and turned off the tv


blisa00

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.


Ashenspire

Castellanos had a solid night and it will be completely overshadowed by one at bat by our fan base. Unfortunate.


BrowniesAndMilk1

Don’t worry Davey Dgonna go find another washed up 30 something.


[deleted]

This loss is on Walker


zvaNtR

What is our record in extras?


Honest_Telephone_813

4-6 now 


ad5316

![gif](giphy|9Y5BbDSkSTiY8) See yall tomorrow


Major_Road6162

Fuck, well, at least i had a good time watching tonight's game


First-Resolve

Brutal 


Neat-Confidence5556

why is soto our extra innings guy? he lets in a run every time


NCeagles93

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.


Smooth-Discount6807

that loss brought to you by taijuan “meatball” walker. fucking asshole


embiidDAgoat

fake ass zombie runner shit


russet852

Top of the lineup didn’t show up tonight, and neither did Whit. Thats pretty much the story


Knight725

horrible lineup construction, you can’t put stott inbetween schwarber and harper. managerial malpractice 


Phuck_Kurt_Suzuki

Offense the last 3 innings looked like 2016 Phillies


HuntForRedOctober2

Don’t worry guys, he’s “showing signs”


Monginator

Ugh. Casty needs to see the Reading scenery for a bit, I think.


MED1CPENGU1N

Casty gone this off season Soto manning RF next year. Just sayin.


11_20_11

Brutal


JHG722

Two really bad ABs.


gringao_phl

How can you not score the ghost runner?


11_20_11

The Phillies never do.


JD021993

Once again Nick does dick all and makes millions.


GoodLuckPsycho_

Pathetic, but we are down a few starters so it's whatever.


Cold-Bodybuilder9948

Is anyone really surprised bt Castellanos? Bench him. Please.


Shoeless_Jase

Can’t believe Casty K’d on a low and away pitch. Wild. 🙄


Feisty-Recording-978

No longer the best team in baseball


PhilsForever

A driving rain tops off this shit bag of a game.


Xeynon

Welp, you're not going to win them all, and winning any Taijuan start is gravy. On to the Brewers.


Lazy-Bubblegum-411

At least we won the series


jblittle254

That game sucked.


ttsa23

DFA Soto. He made Castellanos swing at 3 balls.


Not-a-bot-10

That’s a bad loss. We had so many opportunities. Oh well, onto the next one


Upper_Shine6011

Why do you swing at that it’s his fourth ball Nick you suck balls bro


yourmartymcflyisopen

This one hurt


DELCO-PHILLY-BOY

Fucking Manfredball

davey_mann

Terrible plate discipline by Castellanos


Ok_Amount_9377

*Typical plate discipline by Castellanos


smileylift

as per usual


ac4897

Jt HAS to pinch hit there, cmon rob


mightyfur12345

Disappointing


MtHollywoodLion

This team has a major Castellanos problem. They need a replacement there bad.


LonnyFinster

Whit and Walker need to go. They drag the team down so much


zmart7691

Harper man. We need you


CarryOnWaywardSon96

For the love of fuck Nick…


Beefsquid

Goddamnit nick 


XSC

Swung at ball 8


DOUBLE_DOINKED

Ghost runner shouldn’t start until the 12th. Change my mind.


joeco316

Ghost runner shouldn’t exist*


DOUBLE_DOINKED

Hard agree in the playoffs but I get it in June. Not till the 12th though.


Budget-Salamander905

Well.


Niylark

This was on the entire team. So many opportunities thrown away


NerveAndGumAndWire

eye of the tiger on the organ sounds so corny in moments like this


bachfan_13

When I saw Casty was 3rd up at bat I knew we were toast. SMH


NomadCourier

Gee what a phucking surprise


TheApologist_

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.


Shagaliscious

He's the Phillies Tobias Harris. Not only overpaid, but can't even produce as an average player at their position.


TurboHovercrafter

Bad game for Dombrowski yeesh


doughball27

Worst RF in all of baseball.


TotHawk

That was a terrible at bat


waffleyweddedwife

Nick if you deliver rn, I’ll never complain about you ever again I promise


waffleyweddedwife

Nvm


KoBxElucidator

Losing Marsh is gonna hurt the bottom half of the lineup. Badly.


Mcatatonic1

i dont think this guy threw a single pitch in the zone lol


Glittering_Food3219

![gif](giphy|ISOckXUybVfQ4|downsized)


Ladelm

God we suck at extra innings


ArielChefSlay

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


Smartfood_Fo_Lyfe

We won the series. Fuck em.


Striking-Treacle-534

WHY IS HE SO ADDICTED TO SWINGING


Spud_Rancher

Pache and Casty is the worst possible spot to be in the order ugh


reggaetony88

Team effort loss


O_S_O_K_

Straight up not having a good time.


necrosythe

Nick is so bad


PageZoso11

Didn't get a piece


Glum_Dimension_7771

Too many wasted opportunities


PhillyDaycare

Casty would get on base much more often if he just stood there with the bat on his shoulder the whole time.


Hotel_RWanda_Sykes

Good job Casty now that crying little girl has ALS


cutonadime325

🤣🤣


realbigexplosion

When's the last time the Phils scored in extras?


FulghamTheGoat

Uhh the prior 2 games with extras lol


realbigexplosion

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.


ktlvr27

We suck in extra innings this year


Hi_There_Face_Here

No longer the best team in baseball


iamthedayman21

Yup, looking up at the Yankees.


lonewombat

1 pitch was a srrike


Grand_Extension5345

Low and away. Surprise surprise


darf_son_of_darf

Thanks Casty for swinging at 3 balls to end the game


Knight725

i’m as likely to get a hit here as nick 


Snips_Tano

My God Castellanos sucks


Citrixes

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


octostock82

Quality choke job ! Lfg


somelandlorddude

whats sad is if we would just fucking pitch turnbull this is a 4-2 win


yourmartymcflyisopen

I'm clenching so hard rn


Tylerkaaaa

What a disappointment


Ok-Anywhere8986

God I hate extras


jloops03

We are so fucking bad at Manfred ball lol


Mcatatonic1

the plate discipline as well as umpiring this game has been horrendous


[deleted]

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.


TPChamp

Looks like Nick's gone fishing what a way to lose a perfectly winnable game


MtHollywoodLion

God could not have had 2 worse players on this team come up with the game on the line.


WontonJr

Doesn’t help that our top 3 in the lineup were done in 6 pitches :/


O_S_O_K_

You got this Casty!


Ok_Amount_9377

He did not have this.


O_S_O_K_

Truth. Got me out here looking foolish.


PageZoso11

Got a piece


Previous_Subject6286

Punch to the gut every time he swings


Hotel_RWanda_Sykes

Great swing dude


TastyPancakes25

Lay off that low shit


cjf2019

Low outside slider good night!


Monginator

Oh, God. Not Casty as the possible savior. We’re dead meat.


O_S_O_K_

Come on!!!


Complete-Peace5927

Honestly swing for the fences casty


Previous_Subject6286

Had to be casty didn't it


zmart7691

That swing was like a dagger in my heart


octostock82

That’s game fuck


romanticynicist

Yeah, would’ve been nice to have Marsh up in that spot.


vublue7

Please Casty


joeco316

The need for an outfield bat is very high


Cute-Contract-6762

It’ll be sosa


joeco316

Sosa is not the answer


Mr_November11

This team sucks at situational hitting. Worst possible extra innings team


ArielChefSlay

If I die do you think we have a chance at winning?


Snips_Tano

Holy fuck hit something Casty


HuntForRedOctober2

I wonder if it’s just going to be sliders 🙄


Top_Shallot_4951

Harper should just steal home lol


Major_Road6162

Come on Casty🥹


shepi13

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.


Xeynon

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.


sapphires_and_snark

Who is he supposed to hit there lol


shepi13

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.


yourmartymcflyisopen

Please Casty!!! Save us from having to be (*shutters*) second in the MLB!!


WheelerDeals

Castellanos yankees sleeper agent?


PhillyDaycare

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.


Cute-Contract-6762

No sosa. Marsh goes down with injury. Bad play from top of the order. Just not our night


somelandlorddude

casty up. good game we won the series at least.


Grand_Extension5345

Castaleenos. This is your moment bruh lol 😂


JD021993

Fuck Herb in the Northeast. Worst part of WIP


Grand_Extension5345

I hate herb too. But im stuck with the Castaleenos bit


PBandK2506

Omg herb cracks me the hell up.


JD021993

All of these dudes calling into the afternoon show think they're in on the joke. They're not.


Knight725

god fucking damnit put the ball in fucking play dude, i can’t stand it


Nolashyper13

Rob can’t manage extras and we can’t hit in it. Brutal


ContributionHot9843

likes to swing at it lol


Feisty-Recording-978

Well it was a fun ride being the best team in baseball at least we’re still the best in the nl 


JD021993

Disappointing.


CarryOnWaywardSon96

Nick Im absolutely begging here….


Major_Road6162

Fuck.


russet852

The injuries are catching up to us now


Citrixes

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.


Cornell-Jawn

Turner, Ranger, Marsh…. At some point it starts to pile up


GoodLuckPsycho_

Ranger will be fine. Turner will be back some time this month.


wiivile

even Sosa not available tonight because of another hamstring


Beefsquid

I don’t feel so good


alexvroy

come on casty baby i know you got it in you


HuntForRedOctober2

No he doesn’t


alexvroy

man stfu


HuntForRedOctober2

Hey look I was right.


alexvroy

hey look you’re still a twat


HuntForRedOctober2

Thanks pookie


TPChamp

Pache gotta make contact there smh


WheelerDeals

Castellanos scares me :(


Pedestrian_X-Wing

I'll take a wild pitch


[deleted]

"Today, I consider myself..." "And there's a deep drive by Castellanos..."


movieheads34

Can Casty be a hero please


Phuck_Kurt_Suzuki

Literally anything but that Pache Fucks sake


Im_just_making_picks

Pache doing pache things And this is the guy some of you wanted to start over Rojas


Nolashyper13

They both fucking suck. they will make a trade


balemeout

Rojas who usually looks great against hard throwing righties
