Rain once again was at the forefront of the second game of three between the Philadelphia Phillies and the Los Angeles Dodgers. And while Kyle Gibson was slated to start Wednesday night’s game for the Phillies, manager Joe Girardi decided to play it smart by “starting” Connor Brogdon who then gave way to Hector Neris. As if on cue, the rain started coming down and the game was sent to a delay.
Gibson took the mound to start the third inning after the delay with the game at 0-0. His performance was a mixed bag as he pitched well against one of the toughest lineups in baseball.
