One Sentence Summary: What should have been a laugher of a win turned into a close ballgame following Jordan Romano's implosion, but the Phils hung on to win, 11-10.
What It Means: After winning the first two of the series, the Phillies would go for the sweep on Easter Sunday behind Jesus Luzardo.
What Happened: Taijuan Walker turned in another impressive performance, allowing a run on one hit and three walks before exiting with some shoulder stiffness after the fourth inning. Carlos Hernandez allowed three runs in his inning of work and Romano surrendered six runs in the ninth, before Jose Alvarado recorded the final out and his fifth save on two pitches. Romano has pitched in nine games so far - doing fine in five of them, but doing awful in the other four. His ERA stands at 15.26 after allowing six runs in 2/3 of an inning on six hits in this game.
