PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — On Tuesday, the Phillies marked the return to form of Aaron Nola. The 2018 Cy Young candidate was in classic “Nola” form, stopping the Atlanta Braves in the first game of a crucial series, 2-0.
Here’s the problem: What Phillies team will show up the rest of the way?
If it’s not the starting pitching that is imploding, it’s the bullpen. If it’s not the hitting letting this team down, it’s the starting pitching, base-running gaffes or fielding miscues.
It’s always something with the 2019 Phillies. That has them at 45-40, after one time going 33-22 on May 29 — 3.
