[bkox]

87 pitches

Please let him pitch the 9th Joe

[BostonRoss]

I admit I was against this move but i was definitely wrong.

It would have been pretty hard to predict the kind of success he’s had the past couple of months.

I thought it was a bad idea, too. Not the first time I’ve been very wrong.

Ranger Suárez has never pitched nine innings in a game since his professional career began in 2012. He'll have that chance here.

Ranger Suarez has thrown 87 pitches in 8 scoreless innings. Last #Phillie to throw fewer than 100 pitches in a nine-inning complete game: Zac Eflin vs. Braves on July 5, 2016 (92 pitches).

Complete Game Shutout... and a Maddux!!

[HopeSpringsEternal]

Beautiful game to watch. I hope Vince V has another good start in him. Go Padres!

[LoneStarPhan]

Ranger Suarez looks like a member of the rotation going into 2022.

Great win today behind Suarez.

[EDmuch]

If only we could switch out Gibson for. Ranger for the third game against the Braves. But I know that is not possible.

[donaldorc]

Hope he inspires Wheeler and Nola to bring out their A game.

[Sabin]

Great performance by Suarez, even more so considering the bullpen's position this weekend.
