Typical Phillies game:
Strong starting pitching.
So-so fielding.
No offense. Phils score 2 runs without a hit. I guess that is good.

Strahm gets the save throwing only two pitches over 90 mph. And no walks by the Phillies pitchers today!

Sorry that Sanchez couldn't pick up a win. Great effort!

Kudos to Strahm for the 1-2-3 ninth to earn the save and nail down the win. Home run by Kepler the margin of victory today. Nice win on a day the offense did not do much. Another strong start from Sanchez and a good inning and a win for Kerkering.

Phillies earn series win over the Blue Jays and go for a sweep tomorrow.

The radio guys speculated that Toronto had two LHBs ready to PH if Romano had gotten the call. Of course if it hadn't worked it all would have fallen to him anyway.

Thomson said that was the thinking, that they had two lefties who would have pinch hit vs Romano that he preferred to keep on their bench.
