GDT 6/11/22 Arizona Diamondbacks (Bumgarner) @ Philadelphia Phillies (Wheeler)

Phillies win again.

Stott home run the highlight hit.

Combined shutout for Wheeler and the pen.

June continues to be a fine month.

Phillies have gone one over .500 but gain nothing on the Braves who have won ten in a row.

Castellanos needs to be on 3rd at that

I was a little surprised they gave him a double. He was so slow out of the box that he clearly took second on the throw home.

I was talking about Realmuto's flyball.

Rob Thomson is only the 3rd MLB manager since at least 1900 to win each of his first eight career games. He is the 2nd Phillies skipper to do so.

Others:
Boston’s Joe M. Morgan
(first 12) in 1988

Philadelphia’s Pat Moran
(first 8) in 1915

Phillies baseball is fun!

Going into the final game in the Giant series, the Phillies were 21-29. Who would have bet they would get to 30 wins before getting 30 losses?

Imagine if the team was still struggling and that had been Herrera (or Rollins, back in the day).

Oh ha, just saw your follow-up. Yeah, he read that as a hit that was going to get him home, couldn't tag up by the time he realized.

But he still did not hustle even a little bit on his hit, thinking it was foul.
