Phils won 3-2 F/10. Newcomer Nate Jones allowed the walk off RBI to Segura. Fried ND 5 IP 2 ER 8 Ks, Sandoval PH 2 run HR. We win 5-3 if it wasn't for the 18mph winds blowing left to right yesterday, wind killed a Swanson 2 run HR early and Freeman crushed one to straight away CF later in the game, wind knocked it down, Haisley made the catch at the warning track.

Without getting into the specific politics of the situation, I think it's a bad decision. MLB is punishing the wrong people. It makes no sense to punish the people of Atlanta over this - when they haven't made the decisions that MLB is against. And certainly the Atlanta Braves organization didn't make the decisions. It's disappointing and counterproductive in several ways - regardless of political viewpoints.

3-0 Philly end of the 5th, Morton ran into a lot of trouble after the first two outs.

Tomorrow's game postponed, this is the 4th postponed game for the Nats due to covid.

Agreed. Still very surprising they couldn't score against Philly - particularly their bullpen.
