Chase Phillips was a major factor in Taft's win over Shafter on Tuesday. Phillips turned in nothing short of a gem: he didn't allow a single earned run and only two hits while striking out eight over six innings pitched.
Phillips' strong effort led Taft over Shafter and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on Thursday. Phillips has dominated as far as earned runs are concerned (he's averaged 0.8 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Shafter has only allowed 3.28 per game this season.
