Phillies at Nats-I don't know how to name these things.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the game.  It's the top of the seventh, and the Nationals are up by a run, 4-3.

Ryan Howard just hit a three-run shot off Joe Beimel, our BEST reliever. The lead is gone, and the crowd, many of whom were on the fence for which team they would rather hop on the bandwagon of, have all cascaded into the Phillies camp with the virtuousity one might call the Washington Slide. Arlen Specter, you're not alone.

Garrett Mock allowed Lannan's baserunners to score - that's typical, but Papa Joe Beimel? NOooooooo.

Tonight's attendence, 23,000+. I think that's the second most-attended game.

Now the circus is in town. Beimel gave up a hit to Ibanez after the HR by Howard and Werth striking out, then Nick Johnson fobbled an easy pop-out, then gave up a hit to Feliz. Thank dog we have Julian Tavarez to clean everything up.

Turnstile baseball. So glad we have Phillies fans to laugh and curse around children and be overweight. Thanks, Philly!
