Angels fired Joe Maddon today. Guess that’s what you get for letting Iglesias pitch to Harper, who has ridiculous stats against him!
Plus they hit two homers and scored two runs off the Brewers elite reliever, Hader, who has not given up a run since last July, one extra base hit this season, 4 hits in 19 appearances, and he needed one more scoreless inning to set an MLB record of 41 consecutive scoreless appearances! And it was Bohm and Vierling!!!Nice win with a couple homers in the top of the ninth. OTOH, Knebel is a blown save waiting to happen with three walks in the bottom half of the inning. A WHIP of 1.3+ is unacceptable for a closer.
Yeah, and the last manager to win this many of his first games in a row was back in 1915. History, we'll take it!Phillies start June 6-0. Last time they did that was 1978.
It really was. He can be really good, which makes the times he isn't all the more frustrating. Had great control, was hitting his spots, and didn't give into the dreaded two out hit parade like he is known to do.8 innings, 4 hits, ZERO walks. Awesome effort by Nola.
Am now too, will see what I can dig up.Curious what the bullpen stats look like
Big win. I really wanted to see how the Phillies rebounded tonight. Big win, especially with Alcantra on the mound.
Guy is flat out nasty. If you could take any young arm, he’d be the choice of many.Alcantrara might harm Mattingly tonight. Lol.
Great win. Fun one to watch too.
Gritty effort by Nola too. He had to battle and he did.Guy is flat out nasty. If you could take any young arm, he’d be the choice of many.
Goodness, me too. His stuff is filthy. It's constantly on the move.Guy is flat out nasty. If you could take any young arm, he’d be the choice of many.
Yep, he held up his end up the bargain, as well. Good all-around team win.Gritty effort by Nola too. He had to battle and he did.
