Hector Neris tied a Philadelphia Phillies franchise record on Sunday, but not a good one.
With his seventh blown save of the season, Neris reached 26 career blown saves, tying Ryan Madson for most overall in Phranchise history. He’s also tied for second-most blown saves in the National League this season.
The Phillies have led MLB in blown saves for a significant majority of the season, now tied with the Seattle Mariners at 28 apiece.
