Sellout Streak

Hi everybody,

Just wanted to let you all know that the Phils sellout streak at Citizens Bank Park ended tonight at 257 consecutive games.  The streak started on July 7, 2009 and is the longest sellout streak in National League history.  I cannot say that I am surprised that the streak ended with the way the Phils have played this year but I thought that it might last a couple more weeks.

Ladies' Night at Little C.'s Club (8-4-12)

Eh...it's a living...

Hello Ladies,

This is Ann Onymous and once again, I have hijacked LC's blog for my own purposes. Since my last post, Chase has been playing and looking really good!  As I write this, I'm having a girly drink and listening to music at Little C's.





I found this GIF (more like a gift) online somewhere.  I think it speaks for itself.

This was just before Chase returned to the Phillies.  I could tell you where he was but honestly...who cares!  All I can say is yum!!  Maybe I'll go take a cold shower.

Until next time,
Ann Onymous

Carlos Ruiz Likely Out For Season

Hi everybody,

Carlos Ruiz has been put on the disabled list and will miss four to six weeks with a foot injury. Chooch will likely miss the rest of the season. Ruiz was having a career season and is easily the MVP of the Phils.

I keep thinking that this horrible season can't get any worse but then it does. Get well Chooch because the Phils are going to need you in 2013!!!

Joe Blanton

Hi everybody,

Yesterday the Phils traded pitcher Joe Blanton to the Los Angeles Dodgers in a waiver deal for a player to be named later or cash considerations. Blanton has been with the Phils since August 2008 and was part of the World Series team that year.  I wish Blanton all the luck with the Dodgers and thanks for the memories.

Blanton's final 2012 pitching stats are an 8-9 record, a 4.59 ERA and 115 strikeouts in 133.1 innings pitched.
