Nine days after no-hitting the Washington Nationals, Michael Lorenzen is back on the mound for the Phillies.
Advantage, Phillies? Yes, but not a major one as far as the starting pitchers go.
Adon, 25, has made just four appearances with the Nationals this season, but has pitched well in his last two starts. The righty has pretty decent stuff, bringing a mid-90s fastball and sinker to go with a curveball, changeup and slider . Don’t expect Adon to go deep into the game. He has made just two starts in those four appearances, both were this month. Last time out, he needed 63 pitches to get through three innings, but only surrendered two runs in an eventual 8-2 Washington win over Oakland.What’s behind Lorenzen? The ninth-best bullpen ERA in baseball during a week with two off-days.
While Washington has struggled for much of 2023, the Phillies haven’t taken advantage in their 10 matchups, going 6-4.with a 9-4 win to split a two-game set in TorontoThey have a crucial series — as far as home-field advantage in the wild-card round goes — with the Giants at Citizens Bank Park beginning Monday.
