PHILADELPHIA — Sandy Alcantara was cruising against the Philadelphia Phillies, well on his way to what could have been his fourth complete game of the season — a feat that hasn’t been accomplished in MLB since 2017.
And then came the eighth inning.
The Phillies roughed up the Miami Marlins’ ace and front-runner for the National League Cy Young Award, scoring three runs on six hits in the frame to rally for a 4-3 win over the Marlins on Wednesday at Citizens Bank Park. Miami falls to 49-61. Philadelphia improves to 62-48.
