Daily News | Phillies can’t finish Marlins sweep as Miami takes final game of series, 5-3
With three weeks to go, the Phillies remain well positioned to end their decadelong playoff drought, even after a 5-3 dud Thursday night against the Miami Marlins. They have 19 games left and a four-game cushion — plus, the tiebreaker — over the Milwaukee Brewers.But, well, let’s just say the road is about to get much tougher.
It’s also true that after playing 22 games in a row — and 42 of the last 54 — against losing teams, the Phillies will play their next nine games against the Atlanta Braves and Toronto Blue Jays .The Phillies ran over a speed bump in their final meeting with the Marlins before another intimate gathering . Noah Syndergaard created a 4-0 hole by giving up Jordan Groshans’ first major league homer in the third inning and a titanic three-run crusher to Bryan De La Cruz in the fourth.
But the Phillies head to Atlanta with bigger concerns. They faced three tough Marlins starters — Sandy Alcantara, Edward Cabrera, and Pablo López — and scored a total of 10 runs in the three games. It won’t get easier against the Braves, who will send lefty Max Fried to the mound Friday night followed by Jake Odorizzi and rookie phenom Spencer Strider on Saturday and Sunday, respectively.
Seven of the next nine games come against Atlanta. Including next week’s two-game interlude with the Blue Jays and a season-ending three-game series in Houston, 12 of the last 19 will be against playoff-bound opponents.Now, everyone’s about to find out how good they really are.Brandon Marsh accounted for most of the Phillies offense, going 4-for-4 with an RBI double in the seventh inning and a run-scoring single in the ninth. He had half of the Phillies’ hits in the game.
