Phillies win, but clerical error makes it harder than it had to be

Final Score: Phillies 6, Brewers 5

For six innings Tuesday, it felt like the story of the Philadelphia Phillies-Milwaukee Brewers game was going to be a resurgence from Andrew McCutchen, who homered twice in the first three innings. For good measure, Brad Miller hit a titanic three-run home run in the third inning, giving you the feeling that the Phillies may win with ease, which has been rare so far this season.

The seventh inning had other plans, though. Enyel De Los Santos, recalled before this evening’s game, was slated to come in for the seventh inning with the Phillies short on arms in the bullpen.
