The Phillies ran into a buzzsaw named Jacob deGrom on Sunday afternoon. The Mets starting pitcher tossed the first one-hit shutout against the Phils in the history of Citizens Bank Park to lead New York to a 5-0 victory.
Thanks to the win, the Mets remained in a tie with the division-rival Miami Marlins for the final NL Wildcard playoff berth. The Marlins now come to Philly for a four-game series beginning on Monday evening.
That lone Phillies hit on this day came off the bat of rookie starting pitcher Zach Eflin, of all people.
