Final score: Phillies 4, Braves 3
Much has been and will be made of the Phillies’ younger position players’ performance — or lack thereof — early this season, and it matters. But the Phillies are built around their stars. To go where they want, they’ll need those stars to take them.
Wednesday was an example. Bryce Harper battled back from an early 0-2 hole to flip the game on its head with a two-run homer in the seventh. Tied up again, Trea Turner picked a great time for his first homer of the season, taking star reliever Raisel Iglesias yard for a go-ahead shot in the ninth.
