Mike Sielski: Phillies’ Game 4 loss to Astros has put them in a pitching pickle in this World Series

PHILADELPHIA —Aaron Nola left Game 4 of the World Series on Wednesday in the fifth inning, having not allowed a run. Funny, how a sentence can be factually accurate yet convey nothing close to the proper context of a situation, of this tenuous situation that the Phillies now face. Yes,…
