How did the Phillies defeat the Padres in Game 2 and what were the key moments?

Ben Fadden 0:01
All right, Padres Phillies game two tonight. That one is done. Christopher Sanchez was on the mound for the Phillies, and so going into it you're expecting a loss, and that's exactly what happened. Christopher Sanchez did give up a run though. His consecutive inning streak is over. It ended at a little bit over fifty innings. So Jackson Merrill came through with the hit there. So that's a positive. But It's still a loss. The game was two hours and fifteen minutes and A lot of that was because of some pretty Quiet innings offensively from the Padres. Seven innings, one run from Christopher Sanchez, struck out eight guys. tonight, so it's he still picked really well, even if the Padres did score a run. Um Walker Bueller though, like I do want to give a shout out to him.
Ben Fadden 0:51
He Yeah. See Christopher Sanchez on the other side, you know you got your work cut out for you. He came in and makes this start tonight and he goes six innings and give ups gives up a run. Really the fault went with Jason Adam tonight where he gives up Um a couple of homers. One being to Romito on a ball up, the other being to Schwarber on a pitch that was a meatball. Uh I'm sure it wasn't a fastball, but It was still a meeple that Schwabber crushes, and that's just what it is. Every frickin' series, Harper Homer's. Schwarber Homers Someone else usually Homers as well. But you can count those two guys. Seems like every series. Um Sometimes it's multiple times. But yeah, Schwarber, what does he have? Like twenty three home runs against the Padres in his career now?
Ben Fadden 1:46
Twenty two or twenty three, I think, is the number. Absolutely ridiculous. The dude crushes against the Padgers. Imagine if he was in the division. Like You know how much of a problem that would have been? It's already a problem when he's just facing us. You know, a couple of series a year. Thank goodness we're not playing divisional teams. As much as we used to. You know, it's only thirteen matchups. Instead of a drastic increase of what it used to be. So Um Yeah. Kind of running out of things to say. You know Find myself saying the same thing every night. about the offense and how it's disappointing and it's a frustrating watch and all that stuff. Um you know, swinging at breaking balls on the outer part of the plate and you roll 'em over to shortstop and it's an easy ground out.
Ben Fadden 2:41
Just Stuff like that that's Annoying. But I'm kinda tired of talking about it 'cause I feel like I'm just saying the same thing and we're just saying the same thing every night. So I'm just gonna move on to Castellanos being DFA'd because really like we expected the Padres loss tonight. Um The news of the day was Cassianos being DFA'd. Was I expecting this? Probably at some point, but I was not expecting this today. I was definitely surprised to see it happen today. To see it happen during the Philly series. I mean You couldn't wait a little bit, like you couldn't give 'em at bats today and tomorrow. Maybe you're like, Well, what if then he hits a homer? What are we gonna do? But For me it was like, all right, if crony's coming off the IL, right?
Ben Fadden 3:38
Like you've given Castellanos the ab bats, you've given him the chances. All right. Even if it was for Jace Bowen. But it wasn't. It's for some odd tailor, like. For me, sure, you can say he's got more versatility, something that, you know, Castellanos doesn't have a lot of. Castellanos has gotten chances, might as well bring someone up with versatility.

Why did Kyle Schwarzer’s home run stand out in the Phillies’ victory?

Ben Fadden 4:02
But What I would say to that is you have people on the roster with versatility. Like if you want someone that can go play the outfield when when you need it and you d you know, it's not Merrill, not Bowen, not Tatis, there's Bryce Johnson still on the roster. Uh He was in there tonight. Pinchetting for Billing. Uh Infield you have Sun Moon Song. Like there are guys where you have versatility that can play multiple spots. I personally and this is from the fan, like that's why I'm not in the GMC. I would have at least allowed Castellanos to have at bats today. I would have put him in the lineup today. I would've put him in the lineup tomorrow.
