Daily News | Phillies fall short to the Atlanta Braves in back-and-forth series opener
would follow Wednesday’s walk-off win with another triumphant win on Thursday night. But instead, they fell to the Braves, 8-5, in demoralizing fashion.
So, with two outs and no one on base, Harper stuck out his bat and angled it so A.J. Minter’s four-seam fastball would graze the grass inside the third-base line. He hustled to first base and clapped enthusiastically when he safely touched the bag. Castellanos was up next. And Harper knew, when he laid down that bunt instead of swinging for the fences, that this was a good matchup for his teammate.
Instead of holding a one-run lead, the Phillies went into the bottom of the seventh tied, 5-5, and, for a moment, it seemed like they would capitalize on their momentum as Seranthony Domínguez gave his team a 1-2-3 inning. After Kevin Pillar led off with a strikeout, the Braves recorded four hits, a walk, a sac fly, and three runs off of Soto. Jeff Hoffman induced a groundout for the third out.
