Negatives with the Philadelphia Phillies Game Today

Citizens Bank Park has the 9th-shallowest left field fences among all major league stadiums.

,The weather report expects temperatures in this game to drop to the 2nd-lowest level of all games on the slate today at 81°, which is highly linked to an decrease in offense (and an increase in strikeouts).

,Out of every team on the slate today, the 4th-weakest infield defense belongs to the Philadelphia Phillies.

,With a 5.18 FIP this year (Fielding Independent Pitching, an ERA estimator that is concerned with the things a pitcher can most influence), Aaron Nola places in the 14th percentile.

,With a 0.34 deviation between Aaron Nola’s 9.16 K/9 and his 8.82 estimated true talent K/9 (via the leading projection system, THE BAT), it’s safe to say he’s been one of the luckiest pitchers in the league this year when it comes to strikeouts and should see worse results in the future.
