Bummer. This one kind of falls on Eflin I think (and who knows if Arrieta would have been better). Yeah, the offense could have picked him up and Pivetta took the L but when you put a relief pitcher into the 4th inning he usually stinks (I'm not ready to give up on Pivetta in the pen quite yet unless you think someone in AAA is actually better).

Nice work by the rest of the pen.

Also I kind of enjoyed Murphy as PBP guy. Very no-nonsense, plus, no extraneous outside-the-booth crap from Murphy!

Would have been nice to just keep winning but as ever, come back tomorrow, win the series, and then try to step up and win 3 of 5 on the road.

The offense got the 3 run lead early but then pretty much shut down. Not being able to score the Dickerson lead off double in the sixth was their last good opportunity.

Eflin had the opposing pitcher 0-2 with two out in the third and couldn't get the out. Padres went on to score 3 that inning and that was the ball game. Getting that final strike seems to be a problem far too often.

Phillies win string snapped at four but if they come back to win tomorrow, they can take the series. Winning series and avoiding losing games in a row might just keep them in the running for a wild card spot.

Eflin is snakebit this year, a number of seeing eye singles.
One bad pitch, a 2 strike hanging curve.
The pitcher hit a high FB.

The tying double was on Realmuto, Eflin had hit the low outside corner twice in that AB, Realmuto came back with another call there, the pitch was off the plate and knee high, the hitter dove across the plate and punched it into LF - a good pitch, bad call - catchers know you have to move the ball around to keep a hitter honest, 0-2 you either come with an inside 2 seamer or a 4 seamer just above the K-zone, or bury a slider in the dirt and hope he chases.
