Baseball isn’t that hard. When your offense scores a lot of runs, and your pitching staff doesn’t give up too many, you tend to win a lot of games. The trouble is, the Phillies haven’t been able to follow that formula with much consistency this year. Fortunately, on Monday night, the Phillies’ offense and pitching both performed well, and they came away with a 7-3 victory over the Atlanta Braves.
The Braves didn’t exactly put their best lineup on the field. The starting pitcher was recent call-up Tucker Davidson, the centerfielder was left fielder Adam Duvall, and the left fielder was catcher William Contreras.
