Post-Game 50 Thread: Battery Error

PHILLIES 5, DODGERS 3

You expect these Dodgers to commit two errors in a game. You just don't expect the pitcher-catcher battery to do it.

A.J. Ellis let a Chase Utley foul ball clank off his mitt in the first inning; with his extra life, Utley promptly hit a two-run home run. In the fifth, Dan Haren fielded a Ben Revere chopper and tossed it into right field, allowing Revere to take third. He scored on the next play.

Those three unearned runs were the difference, as RBIs by Crawford and Gordon and a triple-PB combo by Puig weren't enough to make up the difference. Rubber game tomorrow morning!
