The Phillies played the Mets tonight and two things needed to happen for this team.
- Aaron Nola absolutely had to pitch a good game tonight. Not ok, not average - a good game.
- Someone other than Bryce Harper had to show that they were able to contribute to the offensive output of the team.
In the top of the first, #2 was quickly shown it was going to happen.
Trying to sneak a first pitch fastball past Jean Segura is never a good idea and he made Carlos Carrasco pay for trying to do so.
