The Phillies looked to be well on their way to sweeping their London series against the New York Mets. But missed opportunities for huge innings by the offense, combined with a rare bad day by the bullpen, combined with a goofy game-ending double play left the Phillies with a disappointing 6-5 loss.
The first three Phillies batters of the game reached base, and it looked like the Phillies might be ready to romp for a second straight day. But Alec Bohm hit into a double play, giving the Phillies just one run in what looked like it might have been a huge inning.
