Philadelphia Phillies probable pitchers & starting lineups vs. San Diego Padres, April 27
The Philadelphia Phillies (17-10) stayed hot on Friday night with a 9-3 drubbing of the San Diego Padres (14-15) at Petco Park. Aaron Nola was incredible again, and the offense showed up with their home run bats, hitting five on the night.
Nola, now 4-1, went eight strong innings. He cruised through most of the outing, scattering seven hits and giving up three runs with 10 strikeouts to just one walk. Seranthony Domínguez bounced back with a clean ninth inning.
Kyle Schwarber set the tone with his first-inning, leadoff home run against Padres starter Joe Musgrove. It was his 100th long ball as a Phillie. Bryce Harper hit a solo home run in the third, his second in as many games. Brandon Marsh and Nick Castellanos (finally!) went back-to-back later in the inning. J.T. Realmuto added a solo shot in the seventh for good measure.
Despite winning eight of their last 10 games, the Phillies haven't made up any ground on the NL East-leading Atlanta Braves, who are 9-1 in their last 10 and have won four in a row. Philadelphia is still 2.5 games out of the division lead.
Phillies vs. Padres probable pitchers, April 27
- Ranger Suárez (4-0) looks to continue his scoreless innings streak, which sits at 25 coming into today's game. As arguably the best starting pitcher in the majors right now, Suárez boasts a 1.36 ERA and 0.70 WHIP through five outings. He has some of the best batted ball metrics among starting pitchers and is pitching like an ace out of the No. 3 spot. The lefty faced the Padres once in 2023, giving up three runs on six hits over six innings of work.
- Dylan Cease (3-1) will counter for the Padres. The 28-year-old right-hander has bounced back after a disappointing 2023. He comes into today's game with a 1.82 ERA and 35 strikeouts in 29 2/3 innings. Cease's last start was his longest of the year, when he went seven innings of one-run, one-hit ball with eight strikeouts against the Colorado Rockies. He never faced the Phillies in his five years with the Chicago White Sox.
