I don't understand why Merrifield isn't credited with a sacrifice there. He is penalized with an at bat because his bunt that moved the runner over was too good and was almost a hit? Isn't what he did better for his team than simply taking an out?
Again Sanchez is out pitching the walk an inning Morton, Phils O needs to put some hits together and not have bad chases to balls well out of the zone.Like Turner just did ball was almost two feet off the plate
