Notes From The Phillies’ 8-0 Win Over Miami

The Philadelphia Phillies snapped their two-game losing streak on Wednesday night, taking down the Marlins 8-0. Their record improves to 46-78.

On The Mound 

  • Mark Leiter turned in a phenomenal outing, going seven scoreless innings, allowing just one hit and one walk.
  • Luis Garcia came on and got the team through the eighth.
  • Hector Neris pitched a scoreless ninth.

At The Plate

  • The offense put up eight run on 11 hits.
  • Rhys Hoskins continues to tear things up. Hoskins launched another home run, a three-run shot this time. Hoskins also doubled home two more runs later in the game.
  • Pedro Florimon got another start and went 2-4 with a couple of singles.
  • Jorge Alfaro went 1-4 with a single and drove in a run.
  • Sure enough, Maikel Franco was the only member of the lineup that failed to contribute a hit, going 0-3.
  • Cesar Hernandez went 2-4 with a double, a triple, and a walk.
  • Freddy Galvis went 1-4 with a single and a walk.
  • Nick Williams went 2-4 with a pair of singles.

Final Thoughts

A very entertaining game. Between Mark Leiter’s superb pitching and Rhys Hoskins lighting up the scoreboard, the Phils produced a very satisfying win.

Phillies starting to build a line up. Hoskins asked Pete if he wanted him to drive in the runs or move the runners… he understands the game. He had an 8 pitch AB for the HR and his OBP is over 400. Hernandez, Williams and Altherr is over 350. Crawford and Kingery also have high OBP. Nola is real and I think of their other young pitchers 2-4 of them will show improvement…, a year away from exciting.., 2 from serious contenders
Paul come back… we will forgive your political views… come on Paul
