Tyler Phillips tossed a four-hit shutout in his third-big league start, and the right-hander from South Jersey who grew up a diehard Philadelphia Phillies fan pitched them to an 8-0 win over the Cleveland Guardians on Saturday night.
Tyler Phillips - The Canadian PressPHILADELPHIA —
Phillips grew up as part of a generation of Phillies fans in the family and used to attend games as a young child at the demolished Veteran Stadium, but mostly at the ballpark where he shut down the AL Central leaders on Saturday. A packed house cheered on the right-hander and went wild as if they had seen a no-hitter when Phillips retired Angel Martinez on a flyball to left to end the game.
The 26-year-old Marsh needed a bit of confidence after Hayes pretty much was given an open audition to win the starting job in left field. Marsh is now in a platoon with light-hitting Johan Rojas in centerfield.
