He’s back.
Jimmy Rollins was riding an 0-for-8 skid in the two games since he returned from the disabled list when he stepped into the batter’s box in the bottom of the ninth inning last night.
The hitless streak was soon forgotten, however, when Rollins launched a ball into the right-field corner for a walk-off, game-winning, two-run homer.
Rollins was mobbed by his teammates at the plate.
It can’t be underestimated what Rollins means to the Phillies. He supplies their attitude.
The Phils have now won back-to-back games over the Tribe, and five of their last seven.
You might say they’re on a J-Roll.
