A rare rainshortened game sent the Phils home with their latest loss. Nick Pivetta was unable to build on the success from his previous start, getting lit up for six runs as his ERA continues to approach the 7.00’s, which is absolutely atrocious.
Opening week against the skins, division game, a full year with our young franchise QB–and 5 straight Phils articles. Make no mistake, I’m a huge fan, still watch almost every night- I’m optimistic about the Phils BUT…. come on this is GCOBB! X eagle and a football site!
Lots of confidence going into Sunday but its Washington in Washington- certainly not a must win but a “it would be an excellent win” week- go birds
