In what’s looking like a common refrain, the Phillies lost again, this time 6-3. Jason Vargas ended his season on a sour note, putting what could have been an automatic triggering of his option into some doubt. The offense was pretty ineffective, save a couple of bombs from Cesar Hernandez and Andrew Knapp. The bullpen was bad. Again. This time, the meltdown was courtesy of Edgar Garcia. It’s just another wash, rinse, repeat of a game from the 2019 Philadelphia Phillies.
So, instead, it’s stare in awe of some facts about both this series and this September set of games.
