Tommy Hunter Takes Loss In Tight Game
6 years agoThe Philadelphia Phillies and Boston Red Sox remained in a deadlocked 1-1 game into the eighth inning Tuesday night in the city of brotherly love. After Nick Pivetta’s strong seven innings and Pat Neshek’s scoreless seventh, Philadelphia Phillies reliever Tommy Hunter was the next man summoned from Gabe Kapler’s bullpen. The 32-year-old, currently in his first season with Philadelphia, entered the game in his finest form of the season after having struggled for much of the summer. On Tuesday, however, he surrendered a pinch-hit home run, the first for the Red Sox this season. Hunter would ultimately be a hard-luck loser in this game, his first defeat of the season.
