'It's been frustrating,' Soto says of Jekyll and Hyde performances as a Phillie originally appeared on NBC Sports Philadelphia
ATLANTA -- Gregory Soto got his first taste of the Phillies-Braves rivalry Thursday night. It didn't go so hot.
The lefty Soto entered a tied game in the bottom of the eighth inning with left-handed-hitting Eddie Rosario and switch-hitting Ozzie Albies due up. After beginning the frame by striking out pinch-hitter Kevin Pillar, Soto put five straight Braves on base -- single, double, walk, two-run single, single -- and three of them came around to score in an 8-5 Phillies loss.
