Phillies 7, Rockies 5: The winning streak comes to an end

In game two of the series, Rhys Hoskins delivered two home runs and Aaron Nola kept the Rockies bats quiet enough to help the Phillies secure a 7-5 victory.

Rough third inning for Senzatela

On a 1-1 count in the top of the third, Antonio Senzatela threw a pitch to Rhys Hoskins that was inside the strike zone that is sponsored by a particular car brand that is popular among Coloradans. Home plate umpire CB Bucknor called the pitch a ball, leaving Senzatela visibly frustrated and he might have lost some of his concentration. What should have been a 1-2 count turned into a 2-1 count, then a 3-1 count, then a two-run home run to dead center field.
