Phillies Crushed by Red Sox

    I know all of you missed me last night, but I was sick and passed out for most the game, but here's a quick recap for you anyway.  The Phillies got demolished by the Red Sox in the series finale 9-2.
As you can tell this cat is angry at the Phillies level of play in this game.  Read on!
    Jonathan Pettibone got the start and pitched five innings while allowing 4 runs, the first time he has allowed more than 3 runs in a start this season.  Jeremy Horst pitched the next two innings and allowed another 2 runs to score before Micahel Stutes threw a scoreless eighth inning.  Keeping with his style, Chad Durbin came on to pitch the ninth and got shelled yet again, allowing 3 runs in one inning pitched.
    The offense was dismal for the Phillies as they only scored 2 runs all game, both courtesy of a Delmon Young two run home run in the first inning, it was his fourth home run of the season.  Not much else to talk about on the offensive side of things, but Cesar Hernandez recorded 2 hits in 4 at bats, as did Dom Brown who continues to heat up at the plate.
    The Phillies now welcome the Milwaukee Brewers to Citizens Bank Park tonight.  Cole Hamels will make the start for the Phillies.
