[Lucky_Beagle]

Neschek became the 9th Phillies pitcher to earn a save this year....crazy.

[LoneStarPhan]

Neschek became the 9th Phillies pitcher to earn a save this year....crazy.

It's the closer for a day promotion being run by Gabe Kapler.

Neschek did a good job in the ninth. The Franco home run allowed me to enjoy it.
Great to start off the series with a win. We have Nola and Elfin going in the remaining two games.

A good game for Altherr going 2 for 4 with a double and driving in the first run, plus some good play in the outfield. If he can play like this in the coming months, it is a real bonus for the team.

Arrieta with a great start and the shutout finished off by the bullpen. Good pitching continues. Don't forget that they shut out the Mets for 9 innings in that final loss in NY.

[donaldorc]

Kapler mentioned that Chen's righty/lefty splits are extreme so he wanted to flood the lineup with righties.

Maybe the defensive switch was real genius, but this reasoning certainly didn’t work out. We need Manny Machado!!

[allentown]

Closer for the day isn't a bad approach. It helps to kill the 9th inning fears and myths and convince a number of our relievers that closing the game is something they are fully capable of doing.
