00:00Philadelphia booked as an underdog because the Phil's right now
00:03Slightly shorthanded don't tell that to trade turner two long balls yesterday four rbis and the phil's
00:10Hold on late over chicago who scored three a seiya suzuki three run shot in the home half of the ninth
00:17Six four victory for the phillies drs the best team in baseball an underdog in wrigley and they cash that plus money price
00:26It's always a hard handicap when you're getting a guy that's starting in major league baseball
00:29And you don't know how he's going to fare and you got that at a mercato
00:32But I did tell you yesterday his statistics in the minor leagues were actually very very good
00:36He goes on the road in wrigley temperatures in the 80s wind blowing out five innings pitch two hits only one earned run
00:44And four strikeouts through 78 pitches. That's exactly what you wanted to see now
00:48Soto kirkering and marte came in and did a fine job with the next three innings
00:52Here got a little hairy in the ninth inning as you saw ruiz come in didn't record an out and gave up three runs
00:57Like oh, no, here we go
00:59That's a really big win for the phillies and that comes off of the effort in that marlin series
01:03Were you just waiting to see what was going to take place how they would fare on the road?
01:07You need your superstars to step up and you look at that philly's lineup
01:10Yes, they're down three stars in their lineup
01:12But correct me if i'm wrong trey turner still making over 300 million dollars on a contract
01:17You have to sort of step up when your time is called
01:19He really did that yesterday with the two home runs give him that early lead and also the cushion here
01:24That's a great win for the phillies
01:25It's crazy to say like every win by the phillies is great now, even though they have the best record in baseball
01:29But it just feels like you're stealing games from the atlanta braves as long as you keep climbing without your stars
01:35So you'll probably get back after the all-star break
