[LoneStarPhan]

Solid pitching again tonight. That gives me confidence because I think we can win the division if the pitching keeps going strong.

The offense failed again tonight. On the positive side, Phillies out hit the Padres and left ten men on base. They were 1 for 9 with RISP but unfortunately that hit didn't score a run (loaded bases in the first). Phillies had four innings with solid chance for scoring a run but came up empty each time including the ninth.

I expected some rough spots in the coming weeks. Can they bounce back like they did against the Marlins last weekend? It sure would be nice to win the next two in San Diego and return home even on this road trip.

[LoneStarPhan]

Braves now 63-50 and take first place by a percentage point over the
Phillies, now 64-51. Even in games behind.

Tonight, the Phillies looked like they were going to jump on the rookie pitcher, but after not scoring in the first two innings in spite of 5 runners on base, Nix settled down and shut them down for the next 4 innings. In two of the remaining 3 innings against the Padres' bullpen, they got the first two on base but then went down meekly.

Tomorrow it's Nola vs. Lockett, who is 0-2, 9.28. Looks favorable but the offense still has to score runs.

[zambonir]

Gotta try and win these two with the pitching and the hope for the best at home. This is still not a good road team (worst of all the NL contenders).

[EastFallowfield]

So the longest extra base hit streak of the season ended at 110 games.

2nd longest XBH streak in franchise history, trailing the 1929-30 team.

[gmwannabe]

glad i did not stay up to watch. when i saw on the pre game show they were facing a pitcher with a MLB debut, i cringed. if i would have been home i would have posted a wager to anyone that the phils would score less than 2 runs due to this. they seem to always make a MLB debut pitcher look like cy young. and they did. braves score 10 against the brewers, phils score Zero against the padres. braves deserve to be in first. it doesn't get any better since the padres are throwing a pitcher with a 9.28 era tonight. even with nola pitching, i am apprehensive at looking for success. people were saying the phils would be out of first by middle of August. They might be correct. if the phils could only get some pitching. The hitting is great.

Matt Gelb:

Starters in their major-league debut have a 5.28 ERA against the Phillies since 2010. It's a 5.90 ERA since 2000.
