>> that's because you see me here. >> johnny likes hats. >> this is the one that -- is this the store we're remodeling for next year? >> no. the one we were at that you see there was in right field in the second deck as we were walking out to right center field for that night in the ballpark. >> look at that wad on that guy. >> yeah. swing and a miss, 2-2. >> those hundreds? >> i think they were 20s. may have been a couple of singles and some change.

success. >> now that hat looks good. >> we really matched it up good. >> look at pinto. pinto said we need that, leadoff hitter off base. >> the fact that pinto is in here would lead you to believe that either garcia or narris are not available.

>> that's got to be fun to sit there for a few hours, throwing right at your shin. >> off speed pitch. every time the phillies pitcher retired the opposition 1, 2, 3, comcast will make a contribution to phillies charities. xfinity x1 will change the way you experience tv. nola's e.r.a. tonight, 1.7 in his last ten starts. 2-2.

>> unique style of hitting right here, john. >> yeah. >> you know what's amazing though. when he first got called up, he was aggressive, no patience. >> perfect ballpark for him too. >> yeah. no patience, just swung. all of a sudden in the last couple years he's taking walks. kevin long with the yankees really got him to kind of this approach right here, step, wait and just use your hands.

>> he's beating the heck out of that right leg. >> sure is. >> got a pad on it. i'm a firm believer in no stride hitting. firm believer in it. we talked about daniel murphy. that's the way to hit them. you can reach any part of the ballpark without a stride. >> yeah. i think if i had to come back right now and someone at 20, 21, whatever, they're going to put you in the big leagues, but they say you have to have one swing. i think it would be murphy. doesn't seem like he's ever fooled. >> you ever worry about not having quick enough hands? >> it's also the core. the core is involved

as well. you're not just firing your hands at the ball. you're connected to the rest of your body. you just can't see it visually. >> murphy has explosive hits, explosive. >> he lines it. >> it's a little after 10:00 now. if there are any of your young hitters still awake out there watching this game, you want to become a great hitter, try hitting without a stride, just a little rhythm, move your hips back and forth and keep that foot planted. >> ball four. granderson works out the walk. >> tough at bat. >> monday morning wake up with nbc 10

news today. news, weather and traffic to get you and your family up and out the door weekdays 4:00 to 7:00 a.m. count on it. they were hankering for it. i don't know if she really wanted to give that up. >> sugar high for those kids when they get home. >> they're going to be rolling up the jersey turnpike wide awake, aren't they? is that their dad? >> i would think so. he needed to stay awake for the drive. >> that looked like rupp reached six inches outside. that's all right. >> 0-1 to nimmo. nimmo walked his

last time up. he's 0 for 2. 0-2. >> bouncer, foul. and we'll do it again.

nimmo taking a peep down at glenn sherlock in the third base coaches box. granderson leads off first after his walk. >> not sure what sign you could give him, 1-2. one out. he wants to know granderson's running. >> how about all these foul balls for these last two hitters? >> he had kind of -- making a little worrisome, though, that he gets ahead of guys, ahead of granderson and nimmo. he didn't put granderson away. nimmo is batting through this at bat and he hasn't put him away yet.

>> two balls, two strikes. 98 on that fastball. >> the on deck hitter is milner has been throwing in the bullpen. >> they told me today that they do it now. when nola was pitching it was when it crossed home plate. now it's when they leave their hand. >> that is correct. swing and a miss. a slider that went 91 miles an hour. there are two outs

now for reyes. >> nice pitch. >> nine strikeouts for phils pitching tonight. on the two away, reyes who is 0 for 3. 1-0. >> i like those socks that reyes has on with the new york city skyline. >> you like them? >> i like them. i don't think i would wear them. >> i didn't notice the stripes the last time. >> yeah. >> phillies have the red ones, obviously, but it has the liberty bell on it.

it's a little more subtle than the new york skyline. >> generally that look right there that we're looking at, i don't think i could pull that one off right there. >> can't go high socks. >> can't go shirt open with the chain around it and the new york -- i can't go with that. >> one ball and one strike to reyes. outside, 2-1. >> you know, you

never know whether they feel like it looks good or it's just a lot of stuff. see how much stuff you can get on. >> he's got some stuff tonight. two balls and two strikes. granderson leads off first. a one run game. top half of the eighth inning. outside 3-2. that will send granderson on this pitch. cespedes is on deck. not what you wao you w match up at any point, but particularly when there's a couple base runners. >> yeah. we saw the home run yesterday, the home run today. yesterday that little line drive to right field to drive in another run from two outs.

cespedes is an rbi guy who doesn't just use home runs to drive them in. >> granderson will take off and the 3-2 pitch. in the dirt, ball four. all right. so now there's a challenge with runners on first and second. cespedes is coming up. mack will go out and have a few words with pinto. i think this is telling you there's not a whole lot available tonight in the phillies bullpen although ramos was warming up earlier. >> you don't want to tell pinto directly like we prefer milner over conforto over this matchup right here. so let's be careful, see if he can get himself out. if he wants to get himself out, fine if

n -- if not, don't give in. >> freddie doing a little translating there for pinto. >> give him a little more time because they had to use a translator. >> all right. there you go. >> i tell you what, he overthrew that 3-2 pitch to reyes. if there was ever a fastball that had to be thrown right down the middle and take your medicine or get him out, one way or the other. but wow, bounce that 3-2 pitch. then again it's like rhys hoskins. you know, when you get up here and you're not totally relaxed, anything can go wrong. >> here's cespedes to challenge for pinto. he has homered tonight. he has one of the two hits for the mets. that was their last hit. and the first pitch is in there. it's 0-1.

that was back in the fourth inning. >> one of the few mistakes nola made this whole entire night was the breaking ball down and away. stayed pretty much center in. not the first one he's hit off that pitch. ain't going to be the last. >> foul, 98 miles an hour, 0-2. >> here's where you don't want that false sense of security, like all right i got him 0-2, i'm going to put him away. i'm going to make the greatest pitch in the history of pitches here and strike cespedes out. you make a mistake, you overthrow something, it hangs and -- >> 0-2. rupp wants it up. better get it up. got it up. swing and a miss. 98. pinto gets out of

his eighth inning with two strikeouts. he gets the biggest one of them all in cespedes. >> good call by darren rupp making him throw it up there. and good job by pinto putting it right in the glove. >> we'll go to the bottom of the eighth. phils up 2-1. dj: hey siri, take a selfie. ♪ dj: hope i don't cause an eclipse.

♪ [siri ding] our challenges dare us... defy us... and define us. coors light. whatever your mountain, climb on.

chicago cubs are coming to town on friday august 25th. it's part of a weekend that will feature two night games a dnd a day game. sunday the 27th. tickets can be purchased by going to phillies.com. it's 2-1 as we go to the bottom of the eighth inning. that's the poster that was given out before the start of today's ball game. watch this placement by rupp, where he wants it and where pinto throws it. >> perfect. >> at 98 miles an hour. >> yes, sir. >> in the dugout, look at all the talking going on. you've got williams and nava, rupp and

pinto. >> he's doing some serious coaching right there. that's a great thing to see. he's a veteran player. >> eric goeddel. galvis is 1 for 3, has an rbi single. he's lined out and he is popped out. it looks like it is garcia that will close. he is warming up in the bullpen. 0-2. did you buy your 5050 ticket for tonight? >> i don't know. my family's here. so i told them to do it.

>> 18,000 to phillies charities correct. >> that's a good thing. >> there are certain restrictions per state, but you can get a license to do it. >> that would be a great moneymaker you would think for a school. like basketball games x footba games, football games. >> 501 c 3. we did it in the minor leagues when i was there. it's a nice way to raise some money. it's also a nice way to have somebody walk away with a pretty good prize

too. >> 3-2 to galvis. base runner for odubel herrera has a hitting streak on the line. >> time for our unlimited baseball break presented by t mobile. the yankees are losing a big part of their raoster. tanaka just needs a little bit of rest. comes one day after they had to put sabbathia on the disabled list with a bad knee.

he is read hot right now. >> he sure is. cooled off the rockies a little bit too with their win today. >> come on, odubel, get that hitting streak extended. >> hits that one foul off the netting. >> we were watching stanton against the phillies and noticed shortly after the all star break, didn't he close his stance? >> yeah. >> used to have a little open stance and he closed it up and 20 home runs in 30 games. >> he hit 16 of them against us in that three game series, it seemed like. yeah. he's kind of getting a little bit of george hendricks in him. >> there's a unique individual right there he actually --

actually started a style, didn't he, that long pants style? >> yeah, the long pants. >> he was drastically closed. his back was almost to the pitcher. >> he had that top hand too. remember george used to kind of -- he had the dick allen sort of swing. he swung down on the ball. some crazy stuff down to third base now. >> is it hard to pick up because he was so closed? did you pick up the ball off his bat very well? >> looky there, baby. >> freddie's around second, heading to third. he'll get there. the hitting streak is at 15 games for odubel herrera. it's a career high. and the phils on first and third with nobody out. >> just served it out there. that's beautiful hitting. a lot of his hits have come sort of off balance. >> it's like charlie said.

he said it don't matter if you're on balance or not if your hands stay back. look how his hands stayed back. >> that's an excellent point, john, if your hands stay back. >> yep. that's what i always tell kids. if your hands stay back, you've got a chance no matter if you strike toward home plate, toward the pitcher or you open up a little bit. if your hands are back, you've got a chance. >> so first and third, rhys hoskins is up. >> get your first knock. >> fouls it off to the right. nice grab in the hall of fame club.

>> 0-2. >> like he's getting a little over aggressive. >> yes, he is. >> swing and a miss. hoskins strikes out. and one away. tommy joseph is coming up. insurance runs over there, one at third, one at first. >> a little over aggressive like we've been talking

about, the 0-1 pitch, the 0-2 pitch as well. >> odubel is back. hoby milner is joined in the bullpen. >> he's got to figure that, you know, with conforto switch hitter and cabrera and lefty and smith, hoby milner might get a chance if he could go 1, 2, 3 to close this game out. >> i think he thought he may have dropped that ball, kind of an awkward grab at it. >> yeah. you need to pick

this one up here. two runs is much better than one run lead. >> foul. >> you want to go into that bottom of the nineth inning where one mistake is not going to tie the game up. >> every hitter comes at a place and time with a one run lead. >> yeah. they have power coming with conforto, cabrera and smith. >> to left field. back to cespedes. this should get the run home. he makes the catch. here comes galvis. missed the sac fly for tommy joseph. a job well done. it's a 3-1 lead for the phils.

>> guys got the job done. goeddel was trying to get that splitter down and in, similar to the pitch he struck hoskins out with. he left a little bit and tommy kind of got the head on the ball and just missed the home run. >> that's what i like about freddie there. he knows odubel is on first. he's jogging home thinking there's no way. odubel gets thrown out and freddie doesn't score. >> i think odubel was leaning a little bit right there. >> freddie galvis got it rolling with the walk.

>> how many times have we said about our pitchers leadoff walks kill you. leadoff walk right there to freddie gets us an insurance run. >> 39 hits in his first 35 games, the most by a philly player since jimmy rollins had 40 hits in his first 35 games. pretty good company. >> only thing nick needs to do is kind of tighten that hitting zone up a little bit. he is a really aggressive hitter. that's going to get around the league that he is that. >> susceptible to the high fastball and all speed pitches. turn him loose. >> sure. why not. i'm a big 3-0 swing

at bat guy. especially with two outs. but i'm sure nick probably isn't used to it. >> ball four. >> probably couldn't h get him to look to the coach and see that sign. >> want the most accurate forecast? count on the team that gets it right. count on nbc 10 first alert weather, rated most accurate for your neighborhood.

>> may kikel franco is the hitter. >> he was aggressive with that first pitch. i'm sure he was telling goeddel, i know you just walked a guy. franco is going to jump you first pitch. >> two sliders in the last at bat, first two pitches. >> odubel is getting in a dance contest with reyes. one ball and no strikes to franco. >> just got to keep from getting over aggressive on this 1-0 pitch. you know he's looking fastball. >> line ball down

the left field line. rosario is there and he makes the catch. boy, he had to cover a lot of ground to get there. >> i forgot how many outs there were. >> he was looking to turn and fire to see if he could double somebody up. we'll go to the ninth. the phillies are on top 3-1 over the mets.

clinic defensively tonight. >> yes, he is. showing some serious d. >> he's just trying to show up little buddy freddie. two great stops at third base. hoskins went a long way for this ball. >> yeah. watch it in your glove, michael. freddie over there, he's on the other side of the field. >> that's an excellent play for the first out. hoby milner will now face odubel cabrera. garcia is still on top of the mound in the phillies bullpen. over to third. franco. >> he comes up with that one, man. that's the beauty of that second run, guys. you know, getting that two run lead, 3-1 rather than 2-1.

how does your arm feel when you throw bp? >> good. short arm, real short. throw them from like 20 feet. absolutely. >> that's all they want nowadays. >> no. i throw from probably where the dirt of the mound starts, where the grass and the dirt meet. not much on it. >> this is where we need luis. luis has been struggling late ly. >> got a little something on his hat there. >> luis and hector neris share an agent. his 3-year-old son passed away suddenly. luis's agent's son. and hector. >> he and hector both have the rest in peace. >> that's too bad.

>> they were at the funeral yesterday. one ball, two strikes to flores. runner at first. >> cameron's kept the double play in order twice in this inning. we had the one with the fastball on the strikeout from nimmo that he reached first base. aaron nola got him out of that inning. >> swing and a miss, two outs. >> 97.

>> up in the zone. hard to hit unless you get your hands up. >> two outs. travis dd'arnaud is next up. >> blanco and freddie talking. they moved blanco over a little bit to guard the double with two outs. >> hot shot toward second, one hop. hernandez got it. straightens up, throws to first in time. and the ball game is over. the phils have finally defeated the mets. they didn't necessarily keep them in the yard. the mets still had one home run. but they win it 3-1 as aaron nola pitches a gem over seven innings and the bullpen takes

care of the rest. in the ninth inning, no runs, one hit one man left. well, this is a crisp, clean ball game and a much needed victory for the phillies and for aaron nola who's now 9-7 with an earned run average that is just a hair over three. our deliveries of the game, we go back to cesar hernandez and freddie galvis. >> cesar hernandez, side fastball and hooks it into left field for a knock. and freddie galvis with two strikes. that new swing he's got where he keeps that ball out of the air takes it the other way for an rbi. >> freddie galvis is down on the field with greg murphy. >> offense was hard to come by for both teams but you come up with the big hit in the fifth inning.

>> yeah. seems like he threw a pretty good at bat too. i hit it to the right place, right to the hole between first and second. we got the run. >> you know, when runs are hard to come by, defense is so important. we saw you obviously make the play at home plate. cesar ends the game with a terrific play. how important is good defense when you're in a tight game like this? >> always important. i think we have to play defense to win games, defense and efficient today was the key of the game. nola had a really good game and we play defense like i just say and we won the game. >> how much fun is it to play behind aaron nola when he's throwing the way he's throwing? >> he's very good. >> before i let you go, it's alumni weekend. i saw you and your teammates sitting up on the front row watching the wall of fame induction. when you stop to think about what

you're a part of, wearing this phillies uniform and how many years it goes back, pretty special, right? >> absolutely. keep working and playing hard every day like those guys do. i hope we go in the same road they went. >> thank you very much. guys, back upstairs. >> thank you . the phils win it 3-1. aaron nola is our chevrolet player the game. this guy was fantastic once again it's kind of like a broken record about aaron nola. >> he's taken that step that this is one guy you're not going to have to worry about going into next season. dynamic stuff, great mump movement on his fastball. his changeup is a weapon as you see right there to cespedes. we know about the breaking ball.

it is dynamic. that's why nola is our chevrolet player of the game. >> they look to even the series tomorrow. we'll be back to wrap it up right after this.
