Man oh man, these Phillies can be hard to watch sometimes. It doesn’t take away from everything good they’ve done this year, all the strides they’ve made, but when they’re bad, they can be completely unwatchable. So went this 6-4 loss to the Mets.
This game perfectly illustrated how the Phillies are fading, and fading fast. Which is really annoying considering Rhys Hoskins might be getting out of his slump. How do I know? Well, he hit a home run in his third straight game and put the Phillies up 2-0 in the first.
