Entering Tuesday night, the Phillies were losers of five of their last six ballgames. Averaging just three runs scored per contest, things were not exactly looking up, ahead of their battle with old friend Kyle Gibson.
Taijuan Walker took the bump opposite of Gibson, looking for what could be his team leading 12th win of the season. Unfortunately for Walker, the Phillies offense had different plans.
The former New York Met was unstable in the first two innings, allowing five base runners, but just the one run.
An Austin Hays RBI double opened up the scoring, not to be outdone by an Adam Frazier RBI double an inning later.
