Phillies vs Rockies: How to Watch Online, Start Time, TV Info, & More

After dropping two straight games to the Rockies the Phillies are hoping for some form of a turnaround against them Wednesday night.

Zach Eflin allowed eight runs to the Rockies Tuesday as the Phillies lost by an 8-2 score. Despite collecting eight hits and taking three walks, the Phils could only produce two runs as they went 0-for-7 with runners in scoring position and left nine men on base. They also grounded into three double plays.

With two straight ugly losses, Philadelphia is just hoping for something manageable Wednesday. Here is how you can watch the game if you somehow still want to at this point:

Starting Pitchers

Thankfully Hellickson will not miss his start after hurting his back taking a swing in his last outing against the Pirates. He gave up just two hits, one walk, and one earned run through six innings before having to be removed. Hellickson very well could have gone deeper into the game were it not for the injury.

On the mound for the Rockies is Chatwood, who has been paradoxical through nine starts this year. The 27-year old has allowed four or more runs in six of his nine starts.

However, he also has a complete-game shutout and a seven inning, one-run gem under his belt this season. In his most recent outing, Chatwood allowed two runs on five hits and five walks in five innings of work.

It’s hard to say which version of Chatwood Philadelphia will see Wednesday night.
