You know, there are a lot of people who don't understand this rule. On Friday, the Phillies demonstrated some players forget about the rules too.
Yeah, it was embarrassing.
Losing to the defending National League champs is nothing to be ashamed of. The performance of the bullpen was, once again, horrible and tough to watch, and the offense still hasn't been able to take some of those home runs hit off Double-A pitchers this spring and turn them into dingers off Jacob deGrom.
But losing a baseball game is one thing. What happened in the eighth inning of the Phils' 7-2 loss is a bit more embarrassing, especially for one player in particular, Cesar Hernandez.
