00:00We'll be right back with more on that in just a few minutes.
00:054-3 victory in Game 2.
00:07Philly has won both of the opening two games of this set.
00:11Jack, how much stock do you put into the fact that Philadelphia
00:14has taken the first two from L.A.?
00:17A lot, frankly, and I think they won it in the Philly way
00:21yesterday where they had the speed demons show themselves on
00:24the base pads like, you know, Trey Turner, legs out, you know,
00:27and that brings in Whit Merrifield, and like,
00:30Schwarber went yard.
00:31It was a leadoff home run from Schwarber, and then they played
00:33enough small ball to win that game.
00:35I think the most underrated pitcher in baseball is
00:37Christopher Sanchez with the Philadelphia Phillies,
00:39and Sanchez absolutely proved that yesterday.
00:42I thought Christopher Sanchez deserved to be an all-star.
00:46He just got extended.
00:48Now, you think extended means you got a ton of money.
00:51Listen, he got good money, but relatively speaking,
00:54they got a deal on Sanchez.
00:56He'll make about $5 million a year for the next five years.
00:59So he is flying under the radar, and that guy has been such a
01:04calming presence at the back of that rotation.
01:07And, yeah, it's a rotation that features Wheeler and Nola,
01:10and it's a rotation that has Ranger Suarez,
01:12who is going to Arlington to be a National League all-star,
01:15but they are not where they are without Christopher Sanchez.
01:18The offense did enough, and he gave them
01:20an excellent start yesterday.
01:22I think this means the world for Philly,
01:24showing that they can do that against a lineup with
01:27Shohei Otani and Freddie Freeman.
01:29I know no Mookie Betts, but they're good, man.
01:31They're really good.
