Bottom of the eighth, 7-7

Bruntlett with a leadoff single. J. Roll with a good chance to help get the first of those 100 wins he was talking about.

Rollins ground out, but made Luis Ayala throw 11 pitches and moved Bruntlett over to second. Good at-bat.

They're walking Utley here and might walk Howard to get to the righty Werth. Interesting.

Forget it, they're pitching to Howard.

Of course, Ayala's first pitch is wild and they WILL walk Howard to load up the bases.

Werth grounds out as the Phils leave three more stranded. Flash Gordon coming in.
