What it is ain’t exactly clear: Phillies 12, Pirates 6

This isn’t how it’s supposed to be done. You’re not supposed to fall into a big hole before storming back for a huge win. But that’s apparently become the Phillies’ thing. For the third time this month - and second time this week - the Phillies overcame an early six-run hole to emerge victorious. On Thursday, despite a poor start by Aaron Nola, the offense was able to bring the team back and earn a 12-6 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates.

This was the second time this month that Aaron Nola has put the team in a 0-6 hole, only for the offense to bring them back.
