Despite a ton of off-season hype, it hasn’t been the best year for the Phillies so far.
Even after adding moment-interrupter Nick Castellanos and Kyle Schwarber, it’d be fair to say that Philadelphia’s season has been a disappointment at 23-29. Management wouldn’t have fired Joe Girardi after only a couple of months if everything was going swimmingly.
But on Friday night, for one night, the Phillies (+120) had a blast. They teed off and launched dinger after dinger off the Angels’ pitching. As you’d expect, Bryce Harper led the way in a 10-0 win. And a few expected suspects joined the home run party.
