The Mets have lost.

Phillies win 6-2.

Schwarber and Harper went back to back. Jhoan Duran got hit with a come backer and needed to be taken off the field in a cart. Philadelphia holds their collective breath

Fact of the Game:

Bryce Harper’s 2015 MVP season was spectacular. He led baseball in runs(118), home runs(42), OBP(.460), Slugging(.649), OPS(1.109) and WAR(9.7).

His 9.7 WAR falls into the top 250 single season WAR totals in the history of baseball

Luzardo was brilliant but the wheels came off the bus in the 7th. Offense needs to be better vs a bad Nationals pitching staff.

Back at it tomorrow

Fact of the Game:

Jesus Luzardo was originally drafted by the Nationals. He was traded to Oakland in 2017 along with Blake Treinen and Sheldon Neuse.

In return, the Nationals received Sean Doolittle and Ryan Madson

Doolittle would play an integral role in the Nats World Series title in 2019
