UNBELIEVABLE: 3 - Caught on Camera

Aaron Nola outduels buddy Zach Eflin to lead Phillies to 3-1 win over Rays

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — A few days ago, Aaron Nola took stock of starting pitching that has carried the Phillies back into wild-card contention over the last month.

The Philadelphia Inquirer

‘I didn’t want to leave:’ Zach Eflin couldn’t rejoin the Phillies. Maybe now, with the Rays, he can beat them.

Bryson Stott starts nine-run first inning, as Phillies leave Cincinnati with 14-3 blowout of Reds

CINCINNATI — For 44 minutes Sunday, before the finale of another series that didn’t go as planned, the Phillies idled in a rain delay. How fitting. Because extra time to stew over the previous day’s 13-run humiliation never hurt anyone.
