Raul Ibanez knocked in Ryan Howard on a triple to right-centerfield. This successfully ended the slump that theyโve been in since the ninth inning of last Sundayโs game against the Red Sox. Without the runs off of Bostonโs Ramon Ramirez in the ninth, they would have been scoreless 50 innings in a row.
Their 30 innings without a run stretch is the longest since the Braves had 31 innings in a row back in June of 2007. Somehow the Phils managed 119 plate appearances without a single player crossing home plate.
They say a team that plays together, stays together. I guess the same holds true for a team that doesnโt play well offensively.ย The Phillies just need a spark from one player to get the whole team connecting again offensively. ย They just need one player to drag them out of their slump.
When the Phillies are down offensively it seems to affect their play overall. Moral goes down.ย They just need to find a balance and keep their heads up.
โWeโre going to score runs,โ Manuel said. โEspecially when we get Jimmy back and we get that balance down through our lineup and get some guys going. Weโll score some runs. Weโre definitely built to score runs, and we will.โ
