PARK KEYS MOYER WIN
PARK KEYS MOYER WIN

Chan Ho Park’s relief was the key,
blanked the Reds in a tidy and crisp three.
Speaking of Parks, Utley hit one inside,
then Dusty Baker cried
when Werth capped the night, don’t you see?
Thursday, July 7, 2009. Citizens Bank Park. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Philadelphia – 9, Cincinnati – 6.

HR – Encarnation (2), 4th; Phillips (14), 5th, 1 on.
Utley (20), 3rd, inside-the-park; Werth (20), 6th.
Moyer’s 254th career win, tied with Jack Morris and Red Faber for number 40 on all-time list.
Victorino received 15.6 million votes to win final All-Star spot.
Phillies have four players with 20 or more homeruns, only the second team (2000 Toronto) to achieve this before the All-Star break.
Now Who’s Laughing
NOW WHO’S LAUGHING
Could it be another rout ?
Bases loaded, no one out.
Jason Werth, another slam ?
or just another fate flim flam?
Alas, Phils failed to mount clout.
We led by three when Werth struck out.
Reds Harang removed all doubt.
Phils Happ denied team needs
When Brandon Phillips hit two seeds.
And Lights out Lidge pitched like sauerkraut.

BIG PHILS MACHINE

The Big Red Machine is long past,
replaced by a bright Philly cast.
Utley and Howard lead the way,
Ibañez and Dobbs also homered today;
now get set for a New York Yankee blast.

Phillies heading for the new Yankee Stadium to begin interleague play against a Yankee team riding a nine-game winning streak. With a nod to the baseball gods, who continue to pull all the strings, Max fearlessly, and perhaps foolishly, given their powers, predicts that this mid-May matchup will be a preview to a final faceoff for all the horsehide (or is it cowhide?) marbles come October (or is it November?).

Dad blame it, flame shame it, and dang!
Shut down by this big guy, Harang.
Jamie Moyer threw six,
held Reds to three with old tricks,
but the Phils failed to muster their bang.
