Welp. That escalated quickly.

Here I thought they were gonna struggle to plate some runs, have issues with the travel and.... Nope.

Ok, people, I have an excuse.

This is the best team in baseball and no one is around to comment?

Crossing Marte off my list of potential platoon OF trade targets. Maybe he can hit a little, but he needs to catch medium-routine fly balls.

A couple more hits like that HR, and Merrifield will survive through to the postseason roster. #MixedBlessing?

Great job by Suarez to keep that from escalating. Closing in on his 10th win.

Boom.

Castellanos.

European air kept that ball fair, obviously.

7-2, Phils.

Happy 35th anniversary today of the Steve Jeltz 2-home run game in the come-from-behind win over the Pirates.
