Nola shaky, offense quiet: Mets 7, Phillies 2

Coming off of a day of rest after a series win in Cincinnati, the Phillies returned home for a battle with the New York Mets.

With four games at CBP ahead, Rob Thomson deployed Aaron Nola to oppose Chris Bassitt on Friday night.

The first inning was a bit uneasy for Nols as he faced base traffic from the get go.

Brandon Nimmo led off with an infield single, but had to freeze off of first on a Starling Marte lineout.

Francisco Lindor would then send a single to right center to put runners on the corners.
