We ride tonight! We rode last night!

Your Phillies won their third game in a row last night, 14-12. Our record is now a surprising 3-1. (Remember, we are the 1977 Toronto Blue Jays.)

The Playmaker led the way on...wait for it...defense. At first base, he had one inning where he recorded all three outs (pop up, ground ball, ground ball) in a 5 pitch 1-2-3 inning. As catcher, he caught a crucial force out play in the fifth inning to preserve our lead. (And yes, he did "Go Ruiz" again and whip off his mask.) Finally, as center fielder, he gunned down a fool, errrrrrrr, runner trying to stretch a single into a double.

On offense, he was 2-3 (a pair of singles) with 2 RBIs. For the season, he is batting .666 (10-15) with 9 RBIs.

Our West Coast Road Trip (4 games in 7 days) continues tomorrow.
