Daily News | Phillies finally get first win behind Matt Strahm start, beating Yankees, 4-1
NEW YORK — A few hours before game time, Brandon Marsh took stock of the energy around the Phillies clubhouse. They were 0-and-4 to start the season, but he wasn’t too concerned.
“We got Pastrami on the bump today,” Marsh said. “I’m ready to watch him compete. And play some better defense behind him. He’s the man. I’ll go to war with that dude any day.” “I wasn’t throwing with conviction,” Strahm said. “I personally think the right pitch is the one with the most conviction. It might not be the right pitch to that batter but in that moment but that’s where I feel strong. I’ll fight fire with fire everyday.”
As a reliever, who had just three weeks to hastily build his workload up, Strahm was perhaps the last person the Phillies expected to give them four innings of scoreless ball. But on Tuesday night, in front of 35,392 raucous fans at Yankee Stadium, he showed he had learned something from that disappointing 2019 season. He wasn’t tentative. He wasn’t holding himself back. Instead, he pitched with conviction.The Phillies cobbled together 10 hits on Tuesday night.
