Game 122 Diamondbacks @Phils August 18th magic number 31

Just came back from a 2:17 rain delay. Too bad because Worley was pitching great. One hit in three innings and the Phils jumped to a 3-0 lead.
Herndon comes in so that should be interesting.

Mayberry hit a long homer off the foul poul in left to get the lead to 3-0.
Howard is out with a sore hand that he hurt yesterday.

It's the ninth inning now and so far it's been a relatively uneventful game aside from the Mayberry homer.

This a a really good series win for the Phils. The D-Backs came in with a six game win streak then won game one.

Tonight's win is the 80th of the season and put them an incredible 38 games over .500.
If they only go 20-20 in then last 40 games that is still 100 wins.

Too bad for Worley and that stupid rule that a starter has to go 5 full innings to get a win.

Win 4-1
Streak 2 wins
After Pence 14-3
Last ten 8-2
Record 80-42
Magic number 31
