Philadelphia Phillies vs. Atlanta Braves
The Game 2 of the Division Series between Philadelphia Phillies and Atlanta Braves at Truist Park has a different outlook depending on where you look at it. For the Trea Turner and Bryce Harper's team, it would mean arriving with a great advantage at home, while for Ronald Acuña Jr. and Matt Olson's team, it would be a breath of fresh air.
Given this situation, both franchises will go out from the first inning to seek victory. Max Fried and Zack Wheeler are in charge of preventing that from happening. Both were chosen by Brian Snitker and Rob Thomson, respectively, to bring happiness to their teams.
Philadelphia Phillies strikes first against Atlanta Braves
It is important to highlight that Max Fried has not pitched in the Major Leagues since September 21, which is 17 days ago. This can be counterproductive and some have criticized that some teams go several days without seeing action, especially in the postseason. Who is right? We will see!
Kyle Schwarber was the one who started offensively for Philadelphia Phillies, the designated hitter was retired with a fly ball to left field that required a good move from Eddie Rosario. At bat came Trea Truner, the executioner of Venezuela in the V World Baseball Classic and who closed the regular season on fire. The shortstop hit his third double of the MLB 2023 Postseason.
