Phillies are probably better than their record right now.

Still, I'd love to take two.

I was about 9 rows back from the field by the dugout on Saturday, and Springer looked wrecked. One of the innings where he was on the bases for the third out, he just came back to the dugout and kinda leaned over it like he was going to heave. Then he went back, probably got some hydration, and went back out to Right Field.

With Vladdy back, I think they want to give him some time to actually recover.

Vlad was safe but I guess it's not worth risking the challenge this early

He was obviously safe. Clearly should have challenged the play with Chapman at the plate. Not really sure what the thinking would be not to do it.

Wasn't called a strikeout. There were two missed calls by two different umpires on that play.

either the video guys were sleeping on the job or they didnt want to challenge first inning..which would be silly

edit: well it looks like a delayed strike 3 called
