The Phillies entered the seventh with a 3-0 lead before the Marlins pushed across seven runs over the last three innings.
It’s hard to recall a more unsavory game in recent Phillies memory. It ended with Bryce Harper running to first base, hitting the bag awkwardly, and limping off the field. Shortly before that, Kyle Schwarber was removed from the game with left groin tightness.
NBC Sports Philadelphia’s camera caught Wheeler yelling at home plate umpire Emil Jimenez from the dugout. The Phillies starter seemed to take issue with Jimenez’s missed strike three call, which would’ve ended the seventh inning without any runs scoring. In the bottom half of the inning, Trea Turner doubled, and Alec Bohm hit a sacrifice fly to score him to tie the game at 4-4. But reliever Jeff Hoffman allowed a solo home run to Jake Burger in the eighth to give the lead back to Miami.As was the case with Strahm, it was an unusual outing for Hoffman. He allowed a solo home run to Burger on the first pitch of his first at-bat, allowed a Nick Gordon double, and threw a wild pitch to allow Gordon to advance to third.
