Chooch, Gload Start Road Trip Off Right
Chooooooch. All Star? He’s getting there. Clutch hitter? He’s already there.
Carlos Ruiz was 4-for-5 with a home run, two runs scored, and a game winning RBI in the ninth inning as the Phils opened their road trip with a 9-5 win over the Rockies. Ross Gload provided the cushion in the 9th with his first homer as a Phillie, a pinch-hit three-run smash that just barely...

Beerleaguer: With Gload, Ben Francisco, Brian Schneider, Greg Dobbs and Juan Castro, the Phillies have a "presentable" bench headed into 2010. It wasn't long ago that...

Ross Gload a Phillie
Ruben Amaro Jr. wasted no time this offseason bolstering the bench with 3 players that fit the exact mold of what the Phillies needed. Juan Castro was first aboard as the utility infielder, then followed Brian Schneider at backup catcher, and now rounding out the final open reserve role will be 1st baseman/corner outfielder Ross Gload.
