Phillies go up 20 on the tworun homer to right. Dan otero not happy. More than enough for the as for Jerome Williams who absolutely baffled. Williams struck out three holding to seven shutout frames.

We probably have been swinging a little too early for us. That is probably a by product of trying to do a little too much. Every pitch matters whether in the first inning, ninth inning, doesnt matter. Nine games left or whatever it is every pitch matters. You never know which ones will impact the game.
