David Dahl shines for Phillies in advance of showdown with Brewers
Philadelphia Phillies keep winning despite injuries to key players. Outfielder David Dahl steps up with a strong performance in victory.
The Philadelphia Phillies are on a hot streak, winning 22 out of their last 30 games despite injuries to key players like Trea Turner and Brandon Marsh. Even with Marsh landing on the injured list, outfielder David Dahl stepped up in their victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday.
Dahl, who was an All-Star in 2019, made an immediate impact with a solo home run and two runs in his Phillies debut. Manager Rob Thomson praised Dahl's performance and highlighted his offensive capabilities.
Left-hander Cristopher Sanchez will take the mound for the Phillies on Tuesday, coming off a strong outing against the San Francisco Giants. Sanchez has been effective against the Brewers in previous appearances and will look to continue his success.
On the other side, the Brewers have yet to announce their starting pitcher for Tuesday's game. After a five-game winning streak was snapped on Monday, Milwaukee may opt for a bullpen day with Jared Koenig potentially serving as an opener.
Former Phillie Rhys Hoskins had a memorable return to Citizens Bank Park, hitting a solo home run for the Brewers in his first game back in Philadelphia. Despite the loss, Hoskins appreciated the warm reception from Phillies fans.
The Phillies will aim to extend their winning streak against the Brewers, while Milwaukee looks to bounce back and start a new streak of their own. Both teams will be looking to secure a crucial victory in this three-game series.
