One key for the Phillies tonight will be to get off to a faster start than Tuesday. They were in a 3-0 hole immediately, and it took them a few innings to start getting some cuts against Reyes. Some of the players in the lineup tonight actually have some success against Glavine, so the Phillies will look to turn the tables on Atlanta and their good first inning from last night.

Hopefully Ryan Howard continues to hit well and finally gets out of this slump. It was great when he smacked a double when the 105 idiots were saying things like "Why do people applaud this guy?" and "I could hit .170. And that's a fact."
