Enjoy this run by Suarez.
We do not see many of these in our lifetimes or even in MLB history. Phenomenal.
Wheeler & Nola sit together in the dugout and watch Suarez's starts. They are running out of words.
Excerpts from The Athletic:
Nola said he and Wheeler often try to predict Suarez's next pitch ... and are usually wrong. So think about how befuddled the hitters probably are.
NOLA: "This dude don't ever give up anything. That's kind of what it is. It's been fun to watch. You don't see this often."
NOLA: "He's got five strikeout pitches. When he's getting 0-1, 0-2, 1-2 -- which he has a lot this year -- that makes the difference. He's not walking guys. You can't sit on anything. You can't sit on a location. You can't sit on a pitch because he's got all those pitches for strikeouts."
HARPER: "Just a lot of fun, man. That's what we signed up for."

21 games over .500 and 3 posts in the GDT.
Phillies deserve better than this, Philaphans. Should I start doing strip-teases in the GDT?
Yes, I hadn't checked out this site in years and came back hoping to see it hopping! But hell, I think we'd all take a hot Phils team over a hot Philaphans board
