[LoneStarPhan]

Double play saves Hunter but I have to say his performance tonight was yet again less than what we expect from the veteran in the pen. Still, the Phillies retain the lead.

[LoneStarPhan]

Now Walding puts a ball in play. He just can't do anything right at the plate.

[kikutaro]

Goodwin

Mitch Walding remains in the game as the third baseman.
Pitching Change: Victor Arano replaces Tommy Hunter, batting 8th, replacing third baseman Maikel Franco.
Offensive Substitution: Pinch-hitter Brian Goodwin replaces Ryan Madson.
Called strike (92.5 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (93.6 mph two-seam fastball)
Ball (88.9 mph changeup)
Ball (93.1 mph two-seam fastball)
Ball (94.8 mph four-seam fastball)

Brian Goodwin walks.

[LoneStarPhan]

Phillies bullpen insisting that the Nationals win this game.

Deeply distressing.

[kikutaro]

Turner, T

Called strike (84.7 mph slider)
Foul (86.2 mph slider)
In play, out(s) (83.9 mph slider)

Trea Turner pops out to second baseman Cesar Hernandez.

[LoneStarPhan]

Phillies desperately go to Seranthony. Kapler hard pressed but he can't burn up Dominguez because the rest of the pen fails. Let's hope he can get 5 outs without the Nats scoring.

[zambonir]

Honestly, did anyone expect Davis to win his battle with Harper, let alone with the same righty Morgan couldn't get out? The question is, can they hang on?

Not seeing Morgan this time eh?

[LoneStarPhan]

The 2-2 pitch may have been the key to the at bat. Set up the full count and pitch Harper wanted.

[kikutaro]

Harper

Mound Visit.
Pitching Change: Seranthony Dominguez replaces Victor Arano, batting 8th.
Foul (98.4 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (98.7 mph four-seam fastball)
Ball (100.1 mph four-seam fastball)
Foul (98.1 mph four-seam fastball)
Pickoff Attempt 1B
Ball (99.4 mph four-seam fastball)
In play, no out (99.2 mph four-seam fastball)

Bryce Harper doubles (12) on a sharp ground ball to right fielder Nick Williams. Brian Goodwin to 3rd.

[zambonir]

I don't think this is Seranthony's game to finish - and I was typing that before he gave up the hit. We could see one or even two more pitchers yet.

[kikutaro]

Rendon

Ball (98.5 mph two-seam fastball)
In play, out(s) (88.4 mph slider)

Anthony Rendon grounds out, second baseman Cesar Hernandez to first baseman Carlos Santana.

[kikutaro]

Soto

Seranthony Dominguez intentionally walks Juan Soto.

[kikutaro]

Murphy

Ball (99.9 mph four-seam fastball)
Called strike (98.7 mph four-seam fastball)
Foul (98.9 mph four-seam fastball)
Mound Visit.
In play, run(s) (88.2 mph slider)

Daniel Murphy singles on a fly ball to right fielder Nick Williams. Brian Goodwin scores. Bryce Harper scores. Juan Soto to 3rd.
