PHILLIES NEWS

Florida 8 Phillies 5
It Was Over When....
The Marlins put together 3, 2 out extra base hits in a row in the bottom of the 3rd inning, turning a 3-1 deficit into a 4-3 lead.
The Game Ball Goes To....
Josh Willingham with a homer, a triple, a Double, and 4 RBIs. If he had only collected a single as well, he would have become the first Marlins player ever to hit for the cycle.
The Stat Of The Game Is....
4 and 1/3rd as in the mere 4 and 1/3rd innings that starter Brett Myers lasted on the night. In those few innings he allowed 6 runs on 8 hits. Rarely does a team win when its starter puts up numbers like that, especially when their bullpen is as bad as the Phillies' has been so far this season.
The Bottom Line Is....
1-4 is not the start that this team was looking for, but there is still plenty time for the Phils to improve.
