Phillies' Joely Rodriguez: Earns first win Sunday
Rodriguez (1-0) picked up his first career win Sunday after facing two batters and retiring both (with one strikeout) in a 5-2 victory over the Braves.
Analysis:
Rodriguez has a 5.73 ERA after allowing seven runs over his first four games, but he's settled in, holding the opposition scoreless in his last five appearances. He has seen most of his work in the sixth and seventh innings, but Rodriguez will occasionally be asked to work the eighth inning, which was the case Sunday.
