7 years agoClosing out a midweek series against the Chicago Cubs, the Philadelphia Phillies sent Nick Pivetta to the Wrigley Field mound on Thursday afternoon. Coming off two straight losses, the 25-year-old was seeking redemption and a series victory, but it wasn’t to be. Pivetta went just five innings, surrendering four runs on six hits and one walk, striking out six batters along the way. After three scoreless innings, his first run conceded came in the fourth, before a three-run fifth inning sealed his fate. It was Pivetta’s third straight defeat after three consecutive victories, moving his record to 4-5 on the season.
