ERIE, Pa. - By the look of the box score, it was another grim day for baseball back in Philadelphia. A couple of early leads disintegrated and a late rally fell short, leaving the last-place Phillies nearly 10 games out of first place two weeks before Memorial Day.
If you were fortunate enough to be in Pennsylvania's fourth-largest city Sunday afternoon, you would at least feel better about the organization's future. That's because it was Aaron Nola's day to pitch at cozy Jerry Uht Park.
You can question whether the Phillies' 2014 first-round draft pick will ever develop into a big-league ace because his best weapon is his feel for pitching rather than a searing fastball.
