The Phillies’ defense is really terrible
We will wait for the numbers, but Dave Drombrowski set the tone before the Philadelphians’ series started with the Red Sox last weekend.
He told reporters: “We know we will not be a really good defensive team. But you want to play well and catch the ball you can catch.”

Xander Bogaerts homered and drove in two runs, Danny Santana also homered and the Boston Red Sox defeated the host Philadelphia Phillies 4-3 on Saturday.
