Phillies News

The Phillies are dealing with mixed fortunes as top prospect Aidan Miller faces a six-to-eight week recovery from a back procedure, throwing a wrench into their plans for the future. Meanwhile, Cristopher Sánchez made headlines as his impressive 50 2/3 scoreless innings streak came to an end, solidifying his status in Phillies lore despite the disappointment of the game-tying hit in the seventh.
