Phillies get a day off following Gabe Kapler's home debut boos | Extra Innings

So we have our answer to the burning Gabe Kapler question: Yes, he was booed during the home opener Thursday. The besieged manager did get some relief — literally and figuratively — when the Phillies won their home opener 5-0 over Miami behind a strong start from Nick Pivetta and the relief work of Adam Morgan, Luis Garcia and Hector Neris. The Phillies have a scheduled day off Friday and, of course, it is supposed to be 66 degrees, which would be a nice day for baseball. The series with the Marlins resumes Saturday when the forecast high is 46 degrees.
