I gotta tell ya, wasn’t expecting this.
The offense needed this night. We’ve all seen the stats about how bad they’ve been lately, especially with runners in scoring position. We don’t feel like getting queasy this early, so we won’t rehash them, but they’re.....they’re not good. So coming into the game tonight, they needed something, anything, to get them going.
With the Phillies down 1-0 in the third, they loaded the bases after two walks and a hit. Dickerson stepped in and boom, the most exciting play in baseball: a bases loaded triple.
