It’s a pennant race, as John Kruk kept reminding us. Yes, it is. It is. There’s a pennant to be won, and the Phillies could still win it, so there is one. And these two teams playing each other is actually a big part of it right now. But that ended around the time Luis Garcia entered the game.
So, the Phillies opened a crucial four-game set with the Braves tonight at SunTrust Park, with each match-up likely being their biggest game of the season.
Both offenses swapped singles through the first three innings, resulting in a 3-3 tie.
