Phillies vs. Mariners Game Highlights (8/2/24) | MLB Highlights

It was a five hour and three minute flight from Philadelphia to Seattle two days ago, an off day yesterday, much needed off day for the Philadelphia Phillies. Gorgeous day for baseball. Today we're at T Mobile Park where the Phillies begin a three game series against the Seattle Mariners. Maybe look for a big game from Brian Moo tonight, as we mentioned earlier, no pitch restrictions. Maybe you can get deep into a ball game against a Phillies team that has lost the season, those four games in a row and five consecutive series losses. Here's kyle Schwarber, different kind of leadoff guy. He got 40 career home runs out of the leadoff spot 27 with the Phillies and the first pitch. The line drive into left field, a base hit. Well, that'll ease everybody's mind a little bit. That's the way to do it. Breaking ball center field for Robles as you know, Victor plays shallow and Then it came in handy right there. Bryce Harper gave us our rally House quote of the day. He had a lot of things to say after the game the other day. We don't want to play the game that way, but we're a really good team. We've got really good players in here. We've just got to keep going and cowboy up swing and a miss struck him out. Bad go right now for Bryce. Oh, for his last 21 for his last 31. 2 down first inning ground ball to second base to his, let he bobbled it, gets it back throws to first and the inning is over. No runs, one hit, one man left middle of the first Tyler Phillips putting up some really good numbers 3 to 0 with a 180, a to be just his fourth start on the year bulldog bulldog bulldog. Even Rob Thompson said he's a great guy until he starts to pitch. He has an attitude and it's been showing. Victor Robles has been a great pickup for the Mariners leads it off. No, the first pitch. Holy smokes a leadoff home run for Victor Robles on the first pitch of the night from Tyler Phillips and just like that, the Mariners lead the Phillies one to nothing. Nelson Cruz. Money's worth more down at second on a solid base hit by Mitch Hager. And here come the Mariners in the bottom half of the second two on and one away for first baseman luke Raley. There you go. Five. The wanted to see really with me? Wow. Not too many guys go up there right field and straight away right toward right center. Luke Raley with a Mammoth shot a three run home run. One of the longest home runs you will see ever here at T Mobile Park. It's now the Mariners four and the Phillies nothing. So randy draws a walk. The long inning gets even longer for Tyler Phillips. Caleb Cotham is gonna head to the mound. Phillies pitching coach is going to go out and talk to Tyler Phillips the ball four and the Mariners have the bases loaded with two outs here in the bottom of the second. The pressure is still on Tyler Phillips and the Phillies Justin Turner has got a chance for maybe a knockout shot here in the second inning. You want to get this House rocking. Now, see if he can get something or hit one out. There you go. Go. That's the way you make a first impression. You get one chance to make a first impression, Mike and I think he just won that battle. Chandler Phillips. Screw up a Phillies fan right now. He is in major shell shot getting hammered eight runs in less than two innings. Not the way the Phillies had hoped they would begin the month of August. Absolutely not. And that's going to be it for Tyler. Not much to say it just wasn't his day. Schwarber thought it was going to miss in off the plate. He gets locked up for out number three from Brian Woo. Why it's so difficult to pick him up? I think it's delivery. We talked about that. His arm angle also is an issue and everything is so smooth, but Then the ball just jumps on him. Rojas throw him out there. Brian W a 123 3rd, the big lead. He's up eight ground ball to shortstop, charging more 32 outs. You got a guy like this wu it makes it tougher. He's five pitches and two outs. Super impressive. Look at this Bryant who have a night young man, four strikeouts with plenty of run support. He's got an eight nothing lead Arosa Arena got it between bum and Turner and it looked like Turner was in great shape before the pitch. Good for him. Aros Arena is held at third base. Cal Raley pushes into second and Justin Turner's got himself a multi hit night bases are loaded. Mariners have the chance for their second grand slam already tonight, bags packed one out pitch to Rojas and it's smothered by Harper. They'll get one run a runner, they get Cal but the run scores and Rose Arena to make it nine an RB I fielder's choice for josh Rojas 90 in the bottom of the fourth. That's nine in a row set down by Brian Wilson's Castano two out double back in the second and here is second baseman Bryson doing more in the back of a nice hop and really makes the adjustment at first. Brian Wu is just flat out dill 369, 10 in a row. He's retired, looked like it jammed him a little bit, but Rojas able to muscle it out in the right center that ends 10 in a row for Wu and the Phillies have their first base runner since the second inning and the Phillies are trying to decide if they want to challenge this or not. As it stands right now. There's two outs and Trey Turner at first base and they will not challenge Joan Rojas is out at second two down and here comes Bryce Harper. Zero for 21 1 for his last 32. Struck him out. Yikes boy, he is just going through it. Mariners. Brian Woo just racked up his fifth strikeout. He is breathing nine nothing. It's the sixth strikeout tonight for Wu and for the first time in his young big league career, Brian Wu records it out in the seventh inning on the 14th 2 count. Jt Real Muto singles to left the first time the Phillies have had two hits in an inning, breaking ball set to left field and Rosa Rain a couple of steps back, but he's got this coverage two outs top of the seventh. Tell you what this has been a well of a performance. Here's the 02 with two out two on, popped it up. Bryant move for the first time in his career. Everybody has gone seven complete as Rla takes charge, Brian with a beauty over 76 strikeouts, no walks. He's given up no runs on five hits. A dominant performance at nine nothing Mariner lead great performance by Brian W longest outing of his career. Here's Mitch Hager with two outs. The pitch high drive left field marks got to be a spectator. Philly Mitch Hager with home run. Number 10 six, Garrett Stubbs is going to pitch the bottom of the eighth inning. It's gotten to that point again , which has happened quite often. Way too. It seems, oh, it's gonna go down as long as Sosa can Corral this one. He should, he does crowd at second base and Stark is up with it. Two outs. Rose Arena is scheduled to come up and he will bat ground ball over to third. Bom's got it and a 123 inning for Garrett Stubbs eight in the books go to the ninth home will coast to second base with a leadoff double. So one on for the Phillies here in the top of the ninth inning. Brandon Marsh struck out his last two times up. So now brandon Marsh who's zero for three lines, one out to right field, that's going to drop in for a hit. The Phillies will not get shut out. It'll be an extra base hit for Marsh who's turning on the Jets and he's around second on his way to third and he'll get their standing. It's an RB I triple. It's a 10, 1 ball game. Well, that's a really good sign. You know, Brandon Marsh is trying to fight for playing time against left handers back toward the middle base. Hit it to left center field for Wilson. It'll bring home Marsh. It's now a 10 2 game. He's kicking up a little bit of a fuss here in the ninth. So two outs for the Phillies runners at 1st and 3rd and that will bring up kyle Schwarber pro ball over the first bucket Mariners resounding 10 2 win. Everything works and the Mariners still stay on top along with the Astros in the American League.
