If looks could kill, the Phillies would’ve been in much worse shape on Wednesday night at Truist Park.
Instead, they brushed off all daggers and pulled off a comeback victory over their National League East rivals.
Braves shortstop Orlando Arcia paid back Philadelphia star first baseman Bryce Harper in the form of a stare-down after hitting a two-run, go-ahead home run. But the Phillies came away with a win as they lengthened their divisional lead over Atlanta.
In last year’s NL Division Series between the two clubs, Arcia yelled, “Atta boy, Harper,” in the clubhouse to poke fun at a game-ending baserunning blunder from the two-time NL MVP in Game 2.
