1 Play Says it All

If there was one play that explained the 2019 Philadelphia Phillies, it happened last night in the top of the 3rd inning.

With runners on first and second and one out, Isan Diaz singled to right field. The runner on second scored easily as Bryce Harper chased it down and threw to third. The throw was offline and third baseman Maikel Franco threw to first, because Diaz was in no man's land between first and second.

Rhys Hoskins threw to Scott Kingery, who was covering second and chased Diaz back to first, throwing back to Hoskins. Hoskins then realizes the runner who was originally on first was trying to score, so he threw home, late and the run scored. Catcher Andrew Knapp fired to second, and of course Diaz was safe there.

Just your normal 9-5-3-6-3-2-4 for zero outs.
