Remember when the offense was the issue for the Phillies?
Tasked with trying to beat the lowly Nationals, the Phillies continued their recent trend of scoring seven, and only seven, runs on the evening.
The scoring got started early when Bryce Harper continued his crusade to make people in Washington continue to eat their chants of “overrated”, smashing this home run up towards the sky before it eventually descended into the Nationals’ bullpen with a mighty thud.
It got them off a 2-0 start, but they weren’t finished in the inning.
