I don't get how you're counting LOBs.

Nice game last night, btw.

OK, suppose Howard comes up with 2 men on and 1 out, and he strikes out....then Rowand does the same thing.

Officially, the team has left 2 men on base. But there's also a statistic for additive LOB that would total 4.

A high count potentially means that the team has squandered many chances with less than two outs. That's something that has killed the Phillies over the years.

Yeah, I enjoyed last night's game, especially with Cholly Manuel getting tossed in the first inning. C.M. in the clubhouse is the best thing for this team. ;)

However, I fear that Eaton is gonna get smoked tonight.
