Phillies' Offensive Power


The Phillies started strong with a two-run first inning and continued their momentum into the second inning by adding four more runs. This early surge set the tone for Philadelphia's dominance in this encounter. Bryce Harper was instrumental in this offensive display, contributing significantly with his bat by hitting one of two home runs for his team and driving in two runs overall.


Nick Castellanos also played a crucial role in maintaining pressure on Miami's pitchers. His impressive batting average of .667 from previous games carried over as he consistently reached base and helped drive up Philadelphia's run count.

Kyle Schwarber added another layer of depth to Philly’s lineup with his powerful swings that resulted in extra bases, including one home run that further extended their lead during critical moments of play.


Marlins Struggle Against Strong Pitching


On the other side of things, Miami struggled against Philadelphia’s pitching staff led by starter Zack Wheeler who delivered seven innings allowing only five hits while striking out thirteen batters without issuing any walks—a testament to his control on mound presence throughout those frames pitched effectively keeping opposing hitters off balance all night long!
