Ah, the City of Brotherly Love… well, sometimes. It is more like the city of constant booing and breaking lamps and making Santa cry but they do have some love to share at times. Could they give some to the Angels or will they throw batteries?
Lucas Giolito could use some of that love. Instead, it all went to Trea Turner, who has been on fire after Philadelphia stopped booing him. And him and Harper slaughtered Lucas as the trade deadline dud went 5 and 2/3 innings giving up 5 runs on 4 hits, striking out 6 and walking 4. Oh no… who could have seen that coming…
The offense would have to pick him up and yeah, that wasn’t going to happen. Not this team. Not in August. Too little, too late as they say.
Highlighted Recap
Rengifo got the Angels on the board first with an rbi single.
That lead did not last as Lucas Giolito gave up a home run to Trea Turner right after that.
Drury gave the Angels the lead again with a 2 run single of his own.
Again it did not last as Harper tied it up immediately after.
And then Trea Turner gave the Phillies the lead in the 5th.
The offense rallied in the 7th, bringing home a run on small ball.
The bullpen did not help, as Leone gave up a run to former Angel Brandon Marsh.
Angels lose, again. Ugh.
Upcoming
More Angels at Phillies, all early games. At least this way you do not HAVE to watch, right?
