Thank goodness. A series loss to those jabronis would have been devastating in this short season.

Need to go 4-5, at least, on the road trip.

Got in a little trouble there in the 7th, but Touki has looked pretty good. Maybe he's finally finding that potential. We desperately need him (or anyone) to step up to be another good pitcher since Soroka is basically done for 2 seasons and the FO has shown no interest in signing/trading for quality SP.

Just realized our pitchers allowed zero walks last night. Let’s make that a regular occurrence

That would be great. Although with Wright pitching tonight I don’t have much faith in no walks

Touki had 9 K's with 0 walks

pretty good

He was better than the results too IMO. By far the best start of his career. Wish he could have got credit for the win

Yea he deserved a win. Maybe should have pulled him after giving up double to get runners on 2nd and 3rd but had no problem with him being in that inning. Also if we get a run in bottom of 6th runner on 3rd and no outs to make a 4-1 lead, just a missed opportunity

2nd straight game of this lineup with Duvall in LF and Ozuna DH. I think Snit is right with this one. This is by far our best lineup

Acuña in CF isn’t the most desirable thing in the world, but poor Inciarte barely hits better than a pitcher. He’s such a huge offensive liability.

Ozuna shouldn’t be patrolling an outfield in a church softball league.

FUCK the city of Philadelphia. Braves can have 9 straight games in Atlanta, Georgia without a rain issue, but go to that Pennsylvania shithole, then BAM, massive storm.

I think the rainout favors us. It means our SP doesn’t have to go as deep into the game since they are only 7 innings.

On the other hand the Phillies bullpen is awful and we may not get a chance against them
