Wading In

After Ryan Howard leads off the eighth with a single, Cory Wade comes to pitch to Burrell. He gets Pat to pop out to second.

Update: Shane Victorino, however, pulls one into the rightfield bullpen to tie the game at five. Shane only hit 5 of his 14 home runs this season off right-handers.

Update: Ruiz singles with two out. That brings Matt Stairs in to pinch hit and Broxton in from the bullpen.

Update: Matt Stairs smacks the ball deep into the rightfield stands for a 7-5 Phillies lead. You knew that one was gone before he left the batters box. Broxton allowed just two home runs during the regular season in 69 innings pitched.

Update: Rollins walks to bring up Werth.

Update: Rollins steals second, but Werth strikes out to end the inning. The two two-run homers give the Phillies a 7-5 lead in the middle of the eighth.

Horrible bullpen management by Torre- nothing Yankee fans weren't used to.

I agree Jeremy. Why did he let Kuo hit for himself with two guys on base and one out? Especially if he's only going to use him for only one more hitter?
