Rob Thomson's squad was the overwhelming favorite entering this game against the Atlanta Braves. After all, they are on top of the NL East and should be getting more hungry as the postseason nears. However, Reynaldo Lopez and his crew put everyone on the team from Pennsylvania on notice. Not a single one of Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber, and Trea Turner earned a run to get their team back into the game.
The result of this Phillies and Braves clash was unexpected. Reynaldo Lopez propelled his team and gave them the momentum to end the game with a 3-1 scoreline.
