Daily News | Nightmare first inning for Dylan Covey dooms Phillies in 11-4 loss to Braves
ATLANTA — It’s never a good sign when your starter is unable to throw a single pitch that produces a swinging strike in the first inning. But that is precisely what happened to Dylan Covey on Sunday night. After a solid first outing for the Phillies on Tuesday, in which he allowed just one run over five innings pitched, Covey allowed six hits, seven runs — five of them earned earned — with two home runs through two-thirds of an inning against Atlanta.
In the bottom of the fourth, Edmundo Sosa made another fielding error at third base with two outs. If not for that mistake, he could have ended the inning.“They seem to come in spurts,” he said. “They seem to come in bunches. So we just need to make sure that we stay focused and concentrated and take care of the baseball on the defensive side.
Schwarber said he was encouraged by the team’s at-bats against Braves starter Spencer Strider on Sunday. Strider entered the game with a 2.97 ERA and MLB-high 97 strikeouts.
