All day today leading up to this game, the Phillies and baseball provided us with twist after twist:
Maikel Franco will be playing third base!
Yasmany Tomas will not be playing!
Maikel Franco will be hitting fifth!
Chase Utley will be hitting sixth!
Wow, what a thrill ride! Combine those marginally interesting things with that one interesting thing, along with a Chad Billingsley start, a visit from The Mountain That Rides, Ender Inciarte's return to Citizens Bank Park, and the chance to win three games in a row (is that even allowed?!?), and you've got one hell of a baseball match!
