Juggernaut: Phillies 4, Marlins 3

The Phillies’ winning streak appeared to be in peril. They spent the majority of Wednesday night’s game against the Marlins making quick outs against ace pitcher Sandy Alcantara, and it looked like their streak might be halted at six. But in the eighth inning, they demonstrated just how unstoppable they’ve become. They used six singles to overcome the best pitcher in baseball (as well as a baserunning blunder) and earn a thrilling 4-3 win.

Early in the game, there was some angst about starting pitcher Noah Syndergaard. The newest addition to the Phillies’ rotation was giving up a lot of hits, and more than one fan was wondering if we could get a refund on that trade.
