In America and they just suffered their worst defeat since they became a professional team in 1866.

F.M.L.





I don't care if there are other threads about it, this nugget of info deserves its own thread. Now if you excuse me im off to drink myself to sleep.

If it makes you feel better... it could have been worse... they could have been no hit at the same time.

it's one game...it's essentially meaningless in major league baseball.

Until they lose the division or wild card by one game...

I actually listened to most of the game. Just awful.

I'm auditing that game right now at the MLB office. The only reason Philadelphia won that game was because of all the bad calls. This is coming from the MLB office.

Luckily I had Jason Werth starting on my fantasy team last night.

Ryan Howard too, but didn't get a lot out of him.

Is there a less accomplished franchise in sports ? For all of the Redlegs' longevity,there isn't much to show for it,save a nice run in the early to mid 70's and Johnny Vander Meer's back to back no hitters.

5 world titles, and they've never moved cities.

I agree that they should have more than 5 titles though.
