The Philadelphia Phillies are 1-0 so far thanks to stellar defensive plays, timely hitting, and solid pitching from starting pitcher Aaron Nola and the bullpen.

Among the four Phillies relievers manager Joe Girardi used in the 3-2 Opening Day victory on Thursday was rookie right-hander Connor Brogdon — who pitched a scoreless 10th to set up a Jean Segura walk-off single the next half-inning.

The Phillies have an impressive, homegrown reliever in Connor Brogdon.
