Phillies can't overcome fielding miscues in loss to Padres
Other highlights were difficult to find in an 8-4 loss to the San Diego Padres on Tuesday night (see Instant Replay). The Phillies (43-74) are the worst team in baseball and they looked every bit of it as they were held hitless for the first 4 2/3 innings, had just four hits through the first eight innings, made two errors, misplayed another ball, walked five batters and hit another. The sloppiness began early as work-in-progress leftfielder Rhys Hoskins, in just his sixth big-league game at the position, misplayed a catchable ball that would have ended the first inning into an RBI double.
