Pinch hitting for Miller and using Bedrosian with a one run lead were moves I think were wrong, but maybe Joe lucks out again. I sure hope so. It almost feels like this team might just do it this season.

Didi Gregorius was batting .148 with a .520 OPS this season against left-handed pitchers. He just hit a three-run homer against a lefty in the seventh inning to give the #Phillies an 8-6 lead. pic.twitter.com/5j7adeEnAu

Well either way we have something exciting to look forward to.... either a Phillies win.. or the MLB record for blown saves. currently tied at 34. To lose this game we would have to blow another one.

Actually... since Neris is now in line for the win... if he gave up the lead I dont think it would be a blown save... But the 9th inning reliever could

Can never make it easy

LoneStarPhan 2021-09-25 02:16:11 UTC #126

Remember, Perez is a .144 hitter who the Phillies fear greatly. Same for Park, the .188 hitter.

I am not big on how Joe has managed this game. Seems to be trying to save arms which has resulted in using more arms than needed or overusing an arm.
