Wah-Oooooooh!!!! Dodgers take the series. Should’a been a sweep.
8 ball/strike calls overturned so far today.
Late laughter this one.
Muncy Mash!
A gift triple from the home scorer.
Pages wheels!
Pages leather (and feet)!
Hey, Rushing got a hit. He has come back to earth with a mighty thud.
Phillies can’t believe Call’s gall
Today’s Ump finally wins a challenge.
Schwarber comes up too often for my taste.
The Phanatic should sit on him
He is better behaved today–almost likeable even.
The farm boys are doing the job.
Harvest time
That’s a feel good home run
Welcome Ryan Ward!
Painter not painting.
This ball and strike challenge business has rolled out much like the replay challenge. The impetus was the notion of overturning the more egregious calls that change a game, but the actual use is for borderline calls.
Apparently it is making umpires concentrate more
Dalton with the sharp eye!

05/31/26 Los Angeles Dodgers activated LHP Jack Dreyer from the 15-day injured list.
05/31/26 Los Angeles Dodgers optioned RHP Paul Gervase to Oklahoma City Comets.
Had plenty of chances and could not get it done. 2-11 RISP, 8 LOB.
Bummer!!
Dodgers snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
Like minds!
😃 👍
Defeat wrenched from the jaws of victory,
Exactly what I was thinking.
Park one Andy.
Orel said earlier that Sosa shouldn’t be thrown a strike.
Ugh
Tucker has been a huge disappointment so far this season. We’re paying superstar money for league average.
Dodgers caught a break there. About time we got one.
If you are called safe, why would you need to go back to touch?
Normally ump makes no call, right?
Yes but the ump looked like he was concentrating on the tag and didn’t notice the non touch of home.
Time for some more runs.
Cough drops quiets the PHILLIES. My wife thinks Vesia pic is on the Smith Brothers box
Vesia has become Doc’s fireman.
Sasaki seemed to laugh at something Smith said
Roki looked pretty good, but with two lefties coming up, Vesia is the man,
Did Alex get up soon enough in the pen?
Guess not.
Yet to be determined
Job done!
I would not mind at all if Sasaki transformed into a Number 1 or 1A type starting pitcher. Oh baby, that would be so amazing. The rotation would be even more filthy.
Babip mentioned twice tonight. In regard to Marsh being second behind Cobb for his career! And Luzardo suffering from unusually high babip against ( at least three hits against him tonight fit that bill)
Call with his second hit in that regard
Although Call looked like he aimed his hit at the open spot
San Antonio moves on after defeating last year’s champs OK.
I don’t mind Wendy and the Spurs, but was definitely rooting for SGA and the Thunder.
Rally brewing
A recent prospect ranking gave the Dodgers 6 of the first 30 slots, River Ryan and 5 outfielders.
Father time says maybe
Yep, it ain’t softball.
I can’t remember if that’s happened before.
Dodgers used to lean toward pitchers and catchers, no?
It sure seemed like it
Dodgers playing with house money tonight as the Puds lost to the Nationals today. Hope Sasaki has his Wrobo on.
Win tonight and play with more house $ tomorrow afternoon.

A four hitter otherwise would be a solid 5 innings
Woo-HOO!!!
