Random statistics for the 16 Phillies games that Katie & I went to* in 2009:
4/8 vs. Braves -- 12-11
4/21 vs. Brewers -- 11-4
4/29 vs. Nationals -- 1-5
5/8 vs. Braves -- 10-6
6/12 vs. Red Sox -- 2-5
7/4 vs. Mets -- 4-1
7/9 vs. Reds -- 9-6
7/21 vs. Cubs -- 4-1
8/5 vs. Rockies -- 7-0
8/18 vs. Diamondbacks -- 5-1
8/29 vs. Braves -- 1-9
9/29 vs. Astros -- 7-4
10/3 vs. Marlins -- 3-4
10/8 vs. Rockies -- 4-5
10/21 vs. Dodgers -- 10-4
10/31 vs. Yankees -- 5-8
Katie & I are 10-6 on the year, with the Phillies outscoring their competition 95-74 (though we were only 1-2 in the playoffs).
Game length, in innings:
The Phillies played in two 13-inning games this year; we were at both of them. To make up for it, we did see one game that was called after 8 innings due to rain.
Phillies Winning Pitcher
In summary, if we saw Jamie Moyer, he was likely to win.
Phillies Losing Pitcher
..and if we saw Cole Hamels, not so much. Note that two of those losses were playoff losses, which should count for like 1.5 or something. Ugh.
Homers By Player:
Jayson Werth hit 43 homers this year (36 regular season, 7 postseason) and we saw 12 of them in person in 16 games. That means that in the other 156 games he played that we did NOT see, he only managed 31 homers. Thus there was a 75% chance that we'd see Werth hit a homer, vs. the general public's measly 19.8% chance of seeing a Werth bomb.
* I went to a Phillies-Mets game at Citi Field and an Astros-Cardinals game at Busch Stadium this year as well, without Katie.
