Eaaaaaton!

As I write this, the Phillies are down 6-2 in the fourth inning against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

In an inexplicable fashion, Adam Eaton just walked Randy Johnson with the bases loaded to force in a run.  He'd already given up a walk, a double, and another walk in the inning, but hadn't yet surrendered a run.  With one out, had he struck out Randy Johnson or gotten him to hit into a double play -- two likely possibilities -- he would have been very close to out of the inning.

The final of four total pitches to Johnson was thrown with as much conviction as a groom at a shotgun wedding.

Deplorable.
