Final Score: Phillies 13, Cubs 3
Joe Girardi’s homecoming went as well as the Philadelphia Phillies could’ve hoped. Coming off of a series win against the 50-win San Diego Padres, Philadelphia was looking to build some momentum. Didi Gregorius is finally healthy. The bullpen has looked better. July is a crucial month for this ballclub and tonight, they took advantage of a struggling Chicago Cubs team for a 13-3 win.
Make it ten straight in the loss column for Chicago. The fans in Wrigley certainly expect better from this team. For the Phillies, this series could be just what they need to get hot before they head into the All-Star break.
