The best part of Joel De La Cruz’s start was he lasted six innings. De La Cruz allowed eight extra-base hits before even giving up one single, Odubel Herrera and Maikel Franco hit two-run homers and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Atlanta Braves 8-2 on Monday. Making his second career start, De La Cruz got roughed up in the second inning.
