Daily News | Bullpen deflates Phils in 5-3 loss to Braves
, that a popular talking point is whether the Phillies will be able to make a trade to boost the offense in the MVP’s absence.Now and always, it seems, the Phillies are a few relievers short of a reliable late-inning crew. The reminders are frequent. Whether it’s deposed closer Corey Knebel getting the seventh inning instead of the ninth, or journeyman Andrew Bellatti coming into the eighth inning of a tie game, the bullpen is an ever-present weakness.
The Braves had the matchup they wanted against Schwarber in the seventh inning. Lefty reliever Dylan Lee hadn’t allowed an extra-base hit to a left-handed hitter all season. But Schwarber took him deep for his team-leading 21st homer of the season to forge a 3-3 tie. How rare? Consider: Before Travis d’Arnaud and Matt Olson went deep, Wheeler gave up a total of three homers in 74⅔ innings this season. He hadn’t allowed two homers in one inning since April 20, 2021, against the Giants , or back-to-back dingers since Sept. 26, 2019, against the Marlins .
