Opening Day Impressions

You can read all the opening day impressions here.

Tom at Shallow Center attended the first game at Citizens Bank Ballpark and loved the new stadium. He doesn't like the way the Phillies are losing, however:


In the meantime, what has become exceedingly frustrating over the season's first week is not the losses, but how they're being incurred. The Phils' bland acceptance of defeat, their passive, uninspired play, is no better in person than it is on television. I don't expect water coolers to be hurled out of dugouts, but I'd like to see some signs of life. The Phillies are committing perhaps the worst sin of all -- not only are they losing, they are boring as well. Does anybody on this team's bench even know what a rally cap is?

Bad and boring, a deadly combination.
