Good day for Phillies phans. A nice win to take the series, two games to one. Really, we cannot expect more than winning series. Keep winning series and the season will turn out okay.
Realmuto and Kingery lead the offense with three hits each and a total of five RBIs. I think Kingery should not be leading off. Hernandez leading off with two hits and 3 RBIs. The bot unable to recover and report replay results. First reading looks like the Phillies fail to score in the second and leave the bases loaded. Replay overturned the third out, gave the Phillies a run and put Arrieta on base, setting up the bases loaded double by Hernandez. Outhomering the Giants, 3 to 0, today really helped as well. Homers from Hernandez, Realmuto, and Quinn.
Pitching was good. Jake gives them four scoreless innings but got into a jamb in the fifth, hurt by an error and ultimately charged with two runs. The bullpen pitches five innings without being charged with a run. This may be a familiar model in the coming games.
Now to win the series with the White Sox.
