Tough One for Jamie

Jamie Moyer has struggled for much of the season up to this point, but tonight was not a case of Moyer struggling. The Phillies offense simply was not there today, and who knows how much it would have mattered with the way things seemed to be going. It was as if the Reds were supposed to win this game. Everything seemed to be going their way. I have never seen so many crappy hits by one team in a game. I don't think I've seen that many crappy hits in a series. It was as if every time they hit the ball it was a mistake and it just happened to fall in the middle of nowhere. Jamie definitely pitched well enough to pick up win #250, but it escaped him once more. It's almost better that he didn't get it tonight (almost) because his next start is at home and against the Marlins. That is a team he has had unbelievable success against, and it will be awesome for him to possibly get his 250th win at home in Philadelphia. In the meantime, hopefully our bats can keep doing what they had been doing, especially going into a series against the Yankees in 2 days.
