Philadelphia PhilliesvsMilwaukee Brewers
PHI 0/MIL 6
Things to say
Brewers shut out the Phillies 6-0 at American Family Field.
01
opener
Brewers rolled the Phillies 6-0. Milwaukee's just locked in right now, 42-25 is no joke. Philly couldn't get anything going at the plate.
02
key player
Whoever Milwaukee ran out there got into his stuff early and never gave it back, the Phillies bats looked lost all night.
03
hot take
Philly's heart of the order has been quietly cold for weeks, this wasn't a one-off.
04
deep cut
Six runs without needing a homer at American Family Field tells you the small-ball stuff is finally clicking for Milwaukee.
05
exit
Anyway, we'll see if the Phillies can bounce back next series, long season.
The recap
Brewers shut the Phillies out 6-0 at American Family Field, and it wasn't really close. Milwaukee's starter clearly got into his stuff early — a goose egg through nine means the bullpen barely had to break a sweat.
Philadelphia's bats never woke up, which is a tough look against a Brewers club that's now 42-25 and pulling away in the Central. Getaway day or not, the Phillies need the heart of the order to actually show up before this road trip gets ugly.
