under pressure....and using Cairo & Valdez...geesh, not a lineup to score much at all

And we still lead thru 4.

Totally let Hamels off the hook after that 34-pitch first inning. He's just at 83 now in the fifth.

Not looking good, letting Hamels on base.

I hate giving up a knock to Hamels, but I don't really mind him out there running the bases. Kinda glad nobody covered the base there.

Utley has hit a couple of those in this series. Just tough luck.
