Coming into the weekend, one of the concerns about the Phillies was their sudden lack of power throughout the lineup. Yes, Nick Castellanos has been missing, but even so, the big bats have been in a bit of a power drought throughout the lineup. Tonight, facing Eric Fedde, they broke out of that outage in a big way..
Ranger Suarez was on the bump for the Phillies and looked much better than he has the past few games. in the first inning, he was bailed out a bit by his defense when, after Joey Meneses doubled and went to third on a passed ball, Edmundo Sosa threw him out at home on a fielder’s choice.
