Phillies led this game 4-1 before almost blowing it.

Chooch hit a home run in the 2nd and Utley & Howard went back-to-back in the 6th.

Rays had just moved Zobrist in from RF to add an extra infielder.

And the Phils were 1 for 32 with RISP in the Series before this hit.

Thank you.

I am no stranger to getting so sick of a job that I spread toxic energy with me everywhere before I go, but ultimately end up leaving on good terms with my coworkers bc we are all just relieved that I’m moving on, hope the same for Nick
