Sunday was a big day at the South Philadelphia sports complex. Anticipation has been building over this day, with the cap on crowds getting raised just in time for fans to make it down there to cheer on their team. They were ready to scream for their starters to set the tone against one of the league’s better scorers. Of course, we all know I am talking about Zack Wheeler getting the ball against the Boston offense, one that has produced quite well and quite consistently this year.
Why, was there another game in town today?
Wheeler looked to continue his amazing home start streak, one that saw him coming into the game having given up exactly one run in his last sixteen innings pitched on the mound at Citizens Bank Park.
