Philadelphia Phillies relievers blew another late-inning lead on Monday, wasting an impressive four-inning performance from piggyback pitcher Bailey Falter in a 9-4 loss to the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ballpark.
Falter cruised after entering for starting pitcher Spencer Howard, carrying a 4-2 lead into the seventh inning. Reliever Neftalí Feliz then came in and allowed a go-ahead grand slam, and Enyel De Los Santos surrendered six more runs.
Infielder Nick Maton came in to pitch for the last out of the eighth. He was the only Phillies reliever to not allow a run.
This game was a makeup from June 2, meaning it was a single game instead of one in a series.
