Keurkering doesn't have it probably will need to be replaced soon. Like I said Phillies need to score more runs this game.
When they needed the shut down inning, Kerkering fails. First walk gave the DBacks an extra run on the home run. Can he stop another walk from scoring?

Kerkering's fastball seems a little slower than usual
Yep he's not been doing too well. But he did have some good action.on his fastball the last two batters
Kerkering gets back to back Ks to get out of the inning and hold on to the lead. Credit for that but he gives up two runs. Not a good outing.
