Philadephia Phillies 12, Washington Nationals 10: My son and I had the pleasure of attending this afternoon’s baseball game at Citizens Bank Park. By the end of the fourth inning, the Phillies enjoyed a 10-1 lead. But that comfortable margin was not to last long, as the Nationals only trailed 10-8 after batting around in the sixth inning. And by the middle of the eighth inning, the Phillies’ lead was only one run.
The Phillies had themselves batted around in the third inning, perhaps explaining how a game that lasted only eight and a half innings took three hours and thirty-seven minutes to complete. You can access the box score at this link, while wraps are available online here and here.
Next on the baseball agenda for my son and I — attending this Thursday’s game at Camden Yards in Baltimore, where the Orioles will be hosting the Minnesota Twins. That game will feature a Melvin Mora bobblehead give-away.
