Overview

• Bryce Harper was struck on the surgically repaired right elbow by a Spencer Strider 95-mph fastball on May 27 and diagnosed with a contusion after X-rays came back negative.
• Rain forced the postponement of Wednesday’s game and transformed the second contest of the series into a day-night doubleheader on May 29 at Citizens Bank Park
• The Phillies have not yet announced Harper’s status for either game as medical staff monitor his elbow and perform further evaluations.
• Philadelphia rallied without their two-time MVP, eking out a 2-0 win behind six shutout innings from starter Ranger Suárez.
• Debate continues over whether Strider’s pitch was intentional and if the Phillies will deliver a message on the mound in upcoming matchups.
