Sánchez’s Rough Night Against Old Team

Cristopher Sánchez’s hot streak hit a wall as he surrendered five runs in just five innings against the Nationals — his worst outing since April — including a brutal first inning where Curtis Mead’s former teammate crushed a home run to spark a four-run explosion. Despite striking out six, the damage was done early, and Sánchez’s ERA ballooned from 1.80 to 2.13, marking his first four-run inning of the season and the first time a team has scored that many against him in one frame. The Phillies’ playoff hopes now hinge on Sánchez bouncing back fast. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
