Kyle Gibson was very dominating with a scoreless seven innings allowing only a pair of hits to help lead the Phils (2-0) to a 4-2 victory over the Oakland Athletics (0-2).

To The Details

After a scoreless top half of the first, DH, Nick Castellanos thrilled the crowd with a two-run 426-foot blast to center. It stayed 2-0 until the sixth when the aforementioned, Hoskins teamed with Jean Segura for back-to-back jacks to move it to 4-0. Jose’ Alvarado took the mound in the seventh with Oakland trying to do some damage

The best they could muster would be an RBI single from Stephen Pisciotty that cut it to 4-1. Cory Knebel came in for the ninth and the Theater of the Bizarre took place. Tony Kemp became the first walk Philadelphia has given up. A passed ball and an error put him on third where he was plated on a single.
