Do we start the 8th with Kerkering against Acuna and then bring in Strahm for Olson? Does Rob have b#@$s that big?
1-2-3 scoreless inning from Kerkering in the books.
I would be shocked if Kimbrel doesn't pitch the ninth (unless the 8th goes bad and there is no bottom of the ninth) needed.
Yes, sweatting it out with my fellow Phillies phans.

Hoping Bohm can avoid the DP.
Minter out. Pitching change
Can Bohm bunt?
Bohm having a tough nite so far
Have Harper steal to avoid the dp. If Murphy throws, Turner can steal home.
Whenever kimbrel pitches you are gonna see Soto or Strahm as well.
