The Philadelphia Phillies are attempting to salvage something this afternoon in Detroit this as they take on the Tigers. The Fightins got on the board early and hold a 2-0 lead midway through the second.
After a Peter Bourjos single scored Ryan Howard, Odubel Herrera came up to bat and didn't even have to move to get another run in.
The Phillies pulled off a double steal with Bourjos taking second which allowed Andres Blanco to come home easily.
With the Phils showing such little pop at the plate this season, a little hustle and ingenuity is needed.
