Chasing Eight

Chase Utley extended his home run streak to five games with a solo shot in the sixth. He's trying to tie Long, Mattingly and Griffey with streaks of home runs in eight straight games.

The Phillies lead 9-5 going to the bottom of the ninth. Werth and Burrell also went deep.

Technically, Werth did not go deep. It was actually an inside the parker. Afterwards, it occurred to me, has anyone ever calculated park effects for inside the parkers? Of course it wouldn't mean much because luck plays such a large factor, but at the same time, a park with a big outfield like Denver has to make it at least a little more likely.
