Daily News | ‘Cool as a cucumber’ Ranger Suárez delivers for Phillies sooner than expected
’ Rhys Hoskins waited Friday night at first base, his glove ready to secure the first out of the eighth inning as the ballpark buzzed.Ranger Suárez tossed the ball into the air, grabbed it with his left hand, looked at it as if he was studying theResilience, heart, whatever: The Phillies are three wins from a title, and it isn’t going awayThis was the eighth inning of the first game of the World Series against the heart of the Astros lineup.
Suárez is scheduled to start Game 3 on Monday but Rob Thomson was determined Friday to leave with a win. He used Jose Alvardo in the fifth inning and had four relievers — Alvarado, Suárez, Zach Eflin, and Seranthony Dominguez — pitch in more than one inning. Suárez could still be available to start Monday — “Even tomorrow if they need me,” he cracked — as Friday was his scheduled day to throw a side session in preparation for his rotation turn. He instead threw 11 pitches to three batters and Thomson said they’ll check with him on Saturday.
“Honestly, the only difference is that it’s the World Series. Like the name is different,” Suárez said. “But it’s the same game. I just go out there, have fun, and try to get my job done.” Suárez did not make an error this season and his nine Defensive Runs Saved led all pitchers. He matches his coolness on the mound with a smooth glove. He was named Friday as the best defensive pitcher by Fielding Bible. Bohm said Suárez is “the best fielding pitcher I’ve ever seen.”
