When Nola runs out of gas, it normally goes bad quickly
bad defense
a bullpen that will give up baserunners

Offense will have to get some more runs to secure this win...we had 5 runs after 3 innings....can not score 1 run for 6 innings and expect to win many games. So hopefully, the Phils pick up Aaron and their manager and blow the wheels off this comeback.
You have to be able to win games where you score 6 runs. It’s not normal to just keep “tacking on runs”

Good times
The hyperbole has arrived.

No, but with 9 outs left vs. a second-division bullpen, in this instance, I think they can score more.

The As bullpen will be one of their actual strengths. The lineup isn’t.

I see the defense still sucks major ass. Girardi still can’t manage, BP is iffy, nothing new to see, keep moving folks.

Need the shutdown inning from the bullpen.

All Phillies have hits other then Segura and Vierling....and Vierling has hit the ball very well today...so that is nice to see 1st game out

Still very fun to watch, but like the Sixers, their manager will cost them several games each year.
