The Phils pick up a run in the first after Victorino led off with a triple then Polanco sac flies him in.
Marlins tie it up in the second after a lead off double then he scores on a double play.
Oswalt looks a little off again tonight, like he's going to be working out of trouble a lot again.
odd play in the second, leadoff walk. For Florida, tries to steal second but Ruiz makes a bad throw, guy heads to third but Valdez throws him out.
Then the home plate ump sends him back to first as apparently the batter hit Ruiz with his backswing. Batter is out by rule and the runner goes back to the last base he legally touched.
Oswalt gave up another leadoff double and he went to third on a ground out, then scored on another ground out.
Tat was right after Stanton mashed a ball just foul that would have been a looking home run.
Then Morrison tripled, Oswalt isn't agreeing with the home plate ump.
End of three 2-1 Fish and they have 6 hits already. Oswalt has given up career high 12 hits twice this year including his last start.
In the first they hit this guy, Hand around pretty good but nothing since then.
Oswalt is only getting it up to just about 90-91 so far with a couple of 93's and 76 pitches already after four.
Top five, the Phils have finally figured this guy out and after Pence leads off and gets of from an error, Mayberry socked a ball over the big wall in left center. Ruiz then smacked a ball past third for a hit. Valdez scorched one to the wall in left for a double, second and third not outs for Oswalt.
Oops that didn't go well. They walked Victorino to load the bases but Polanco hit a short pop to center, they sent Ruiz and he was out, not by much but he was out. Inning ending fly out double play.
Utley leads off the sixth with a ball hitting him on the back right between the 2 and the 6.
THen two walks to load 'em up for Mayberry, he gets a sac fly RBI.
Oswalt ends up throwing an affective 6.1 only gave up three runs and the bullpen only gave up one hit.
Mayberry has three RBI's and they only had seven hits to the Marlins nine.
The big news is that they are 42 games over .500 for the first time EVER.
they just keep chuggin' along even wi all the players that keep going on the DL. Including the latest with Rollins still there.
And now they have five wins in a row to start the 33 in 31.
I am in awe right now, I thought they would be good this year but I never expected the season to go like this.
They havent lost more then two in a row since early June I think.
Win 5-3
last ten 7-3
After Pence 22-7
Division up 8.5
Magic number 19
Record 88-46
