Final: Phillies 9, Marlins 1
Following being outscored 25-7 in the final two games of a series with a divisional rival, it’s hard to imagine having a start much worse than the Philadelphia Phillies did Friday evening against the lowly Miami Marlins. After loading the bases in the top of the first, the Phillies didn’t manage to push a single run across, with Rhys Hoskins striking out and J.T. Realmuto, in his return to Miami, grounding into an inning-ending double-play.
Fortunately, when you’re playing a team that entered the evening 3-10, you tend to get a lot of chances.
