The Phils got a huge boost last night from their bench players.   Tomas Perez and Todd Pratt jumped in and gave the team a spark.   Pratt had a career high 5 RBI and led the Phils to a much needed offensive explosion as well as a win.   Not only that, but Brett Myers continued his strong groove with another strong performance.   His ERA in 8 starts this year is 1.63.  You got it, 1.63.

Pratt's done a great job with the staff this year, and any offense he can offer is a plus.   Being a former backup catcher, I know that it's tough to be mentally prepared to catch every 4 or 5 days rather than every day.   Pratt has this down to a science and it's nice to see his fire on the field.

The Phils have to win tonight to keep some momentum going.
