Game 1: Phillies win 6-1

Game 3: Braves clobber the Phillies and win 10-3

The Phillies started their season off strong winning their series against their rivals the Atlanta Braves.
Game 1 saw Spencer Strider go up against Zack Wheeler.
Strider could not exercise his demons at Citizens Bank Park as he gave up 3 ER on 9 hits. Wheeler had an excellent showing only giving up 1 ER on 5 hits and struck out 7.
Kyle Schawber and Johan Rojas got off to fast starts as Kyle launched 2 homeruns and Rojas had a decent day at the plate going 3-4 with two doubles.

Game 2 had Aaron Nola facing off against Max Fried in a back and forth game.
Fried was hosing down Phillies hitters striking out 9 on the day while giving up 3 ER.
Nola gave up 2 ER on 5 hits and struck out 7.
Fireworks came in the bottom of the 9th as Edmundo Sosa hit a pitch hit 2 run walkoff homerun as he came in for a struggling Brandon Marsh.
Johan Rojas continued his hot bat in this game as he hit an unlikely wall scraper for a home run.

Game 3 pitched Ranger Suárez and Chris Sale in a one sided game.
A combination of frustrated Braves hitters and Ranger not having his best stuff saw Suárez get pounded for 7 ERs coming on 6 homers and he only lasted 3.2 IP.
Sale on the other hand was dealing going 7 innings and striking out 9 on 2 hits and 1 ER.
Phillies bats were relatively quiet as the only runs were thanks to a Bryson Stott blast and a Alec Bohm base hit.
