Phillies News
The Philadelphia Phillies' hopes of catching the Braves took a hit with a disappointing 6-5 loss in extras and the news that Jesús Luzardo has been scratched from his scheduled start due to shoulder stiffness. This setback is compounded by the fact that the bullpen has faltered repeatedly, leaving the team scrambling for answers as they try to stay within striking distance in the NL East. Luzardo's absence is particularly stinging, given he recently threw a two-hit shutout against Atlanta, now the Phillies will rely on an opener and a patchwork approach just to get through the next game. With their postseason dreams hanging by a thread, the urgency to turn things around has never been greater.
