Thanks to Tyler Phillips, the Miami Marlins are coming off an unexpected win against the Toronto Blue Jays. The reliever stepped up to the plate to help the team win and did precisely what he had to do, delivering when they needed him the most. The Marlins are turning to their young stars, who seem to be helping the team win.
The Marlins secured an early lead and held the Blue Jays to only three runs. Their offense scored five runs and won their 61st game of the season. Tyler Phillips helped seal the victory.
Phillips earned a rare save after throwing a perfect ninth inning. The pitcher never recorded a walk or a strikeout. It was a great outing for the Marlins star as he won his second save of the season. However, his postgame interview was something fans would never see every day.
When asked about his performance and outing, Tyler Phillips delivered blunt responses to the reporter.
Phillips mentioned that he was pissed off when they called him out to pitch, and he was ready to go. He also stated that he doesn’t like hitters.
Here’s a look at the video:
It’s pretty rare to watch a pitcher give such an interview. In most cases, pitchers are humble, but Phillips was certainly not, as he looked upset.
Tyler Phillips And The Miami Marlins’ Playoff Hopes Diminish 
Despite their win against the Blue Jays, the Miami Marlins are eight games back in the NL Wild Card race. They are trailing several teams and are still outside the playoff position. It’s a tough call for the team, but they still have a chance if they stay consistent.
Tyler Phillips has a 2-1 record and a 3.27 ERA. He has 41 strikeouts in 61.1 innings pitched. Phillips will play a crucial role for the team in its upcoming games. The Marlins are third in the NL East, and they have a tough schedule ahead against some of the top teams.
The team was involved in trade rumors as they were predicted to part ways with Sandy Alcantara. However, things didn’t work out. Making the playoffs seems to be a long shot for the Marlins, and they can only hope for a better season next year.
