What was a close game for a while turned out badly due to another blowup from the bullpen.
Bryce Harper opened the scoring with a solo home run in the bottom of the first.

That was the Phillies’ offense for the day.
Jesus Luzardo showed why he was one of the top pitching prospects in the minors last year by shutting down one of the better offenses in the game, only allowing the one run, scattering six other hits, striking out nine and walking a lone batter.
