The Philadelphia Phillies have lost six of their last eight games. And after a sweep at the hands of the San Francisco Giants, pitcher Jake Arrieta has reached a boiling point.
"Overall, it's just a really horse s--- series," Arrieta said after the Phillies' 6-1 loss on Sunday. "Really bad. Really bad."
Sunday's loss featured the team's only run scored of the entire series, one driven in by Arrieta with a solo homer in the third inning.
The sixth home run of Arrieta's career wasn't enough to calm down the right-hander, who is in his first year with Philadelphia.
