Game 72: Rays (38-31) at Phillies (33-38)

Hi everybody,

Here is the score of today's game:

Tampa Bay Rays:               6
Philadelphia Phillies:        7

WP:   Jonathan Papelbon (2-2)

Juan Pierre gets three RBIs (15)
Jimmy Rollins gets two RBIs (23)
Carlos Ruiz gets an RBI (39)
Jim Thome gets an RBI (15)

Jimmy Rollins gets a Home Run (6)
Juan Pierre gets a Home Run (1)
Jim Thome gets a Home Run (5)


What a walk-off win by the Phils!  After Jonathan Papelbon blows his first save of the season, Jim Thome hits a Home Run to win the game in the bottom of the 9th.  What an exciting way to end the game!  Juan Pierre also hit his first Home Run of the season with a three run blast in the 4th inning. Congrats also to Phillies skipper Charlie Manuel who won his 900th game as a Major League manager.  The Phils play a doubleheader tomorrow due to the last night's rain out with Cole Hamels pitching the early game and Cliff Lee pitching the late game.  Go Phils!!!

Talk to you soon,
Little Chase
