Although the Pirates lost every game in this series, today’s the only game that could legitimately be called a blowout.
Kyle “If I Don’t Hit A Homer, I Don’t Hit” and Alec “Despite My Name, I Don’t Hit Bombs That Often” Bohm’s dings were the cherries on the Sunday sundae of Phillies hits. Unlike his big brother, Bryan Reynolds’s new baby boy did not give Dad’s bat pop; the Pirates only had nine hits today (only compared to the Phillies 18), most of them courtesy of Kevin Newman and Cal Mitchell, although people got excited in the bottom of the ninth when Oneil Cruz singled and Yoshi “I Haven’t Been Hitting Period” got him home.
