Another national broadcast for the Phillies on a Sunday night? Who does ESPN think they are, mid-00’s Yankees?
Another outstanding pitching matchup on tap for what has been an exciting series between two potential playoff teams, this one the emerging ace in Cristopher Sanchez against the aging, but still quite crafty Charlie Morton. Both pitchers lived up to their billing, though in the early going, the Phillies did look like they were going to be able to chip away at Morton. Bryce Harper had a double against him in the first inning, then in the second, Nick Castellanos singled and went to third on a double by Brandon Marsh with nobody out.
