Daily News | Phillies wait out long rain delay and finish off sweep of Nationals
After enduring the longest midgame rain delay in franchise history, the Phillies notched a three-game series sweep over the Washington Nationals with a 7-5 win on Sunday night. Right-hander Aaron Nola got the start but pitched only two innings before the rain started to fall. Three hours and 36 minutes later, the Phillies resumed play. Long man Cristopher Sánchez took over for Nola in the third.
Nola’s outing was short but strong: two hits and no runs or walks, with two strikeouts. From there, Sánchez pitched three innings and allowed seven hits, four earned runs and one walk with two strikeouts. Sánchez hadn’t pitched since Sept. 2. The bullpen — namely Jose Alvarado, Seranthony Domínguez and David Robertson — locked it down to secure the win, allowing no runs. The Phillies are now 78-62.
