PHILLIES POSTCAST: Philadelphia Phillies LOSE 8-7 to Miami Marlins as Fish snap 12gm losing streak!

Zack Wheeler's struggles start it, Jhoan Duran's struggles BLOW IT as the Philadelphia Phillies fall to the Miami Marlins, 8-7.  

Wheeler started for the Phillies and got the quick hook after allowing five runs on six hits over just three innings of work.  

Then the Bullpen came in and calmed the storm as the Phillies bats stormed back taking a 7-5 lead!  

The Phillies would take that lead into the bottom of the 9th where Duran went on to blow his second save of the season.  

Wheeler did struggle in the loss, but he did have some help from the Phillies defense. In the bottom of the first, Zack Wheeler gave up a single to Otto Lopez. Lopez then stole second on a throwing error from J.T. Realmuto that bounced off Bryson Stott’s mitt and towards first base. Trea Turner, slow to back up the play allowed Lopez to pop up and head towards third. Turner then rushed a throw to third and bounced it past Alec Bohm allowing Lopez to score the Marlins’ first run.  

Then in the 2nd inning, after Wheeler allowed a leadoff homer to Griffin Conine, he walked Sanoja on four pitches and then allowed a one-out RBI double to Jakob Marsee to give the Marlins a 4-2 advantage. The Marlins tacked on another in the inning when Lopez put a ball into right/center field that Justin Crawford dove for and missed horribly giving Lopez an RBI triple.  

The Phillies fought back in the 6th inning. Trailing 5-2, Bryce Harper led off with a walk and advanced to second on a Brandon Marsh ground out to first. Alec Bohm then stepped up and drove a 2-1 slider into center field for an RBI single. Bryson Stott then smacked a single to right putting runners on first and second with one out. The Marlins went to the bullpen and brought in Tyler Zuber to face Realmuto and J.T. made them pay hitting an RBI ground-rule double to right.  

He came around to score after a Justin Crawford RBI single and another run scored on the play on an error. Phillies took a 6-5 lead by the end of the 6th.  

Bryson Stott led off the 8th with a triple and scored on a Realmuto Sac Fly RBI.

(NOTE: The original thumbnail to this post has a Picture of Wheeler with the headline,  

"Concerning Loss" in reference to the suspicion of a possible injury to Weeler. Once Wheeler and Don Mattingly said the righty felt healthy, just had a bad night, that Thumbnail was changed to the current one with Duran.)
