Phillies Make Rotation Change For Game 3

Monday's game was postponed due to inclement weather. 

Noah Syndergaard was originally slated to start Game 3 of the World Series for the Philadelphia Phillies, but that's no longer the case. 

Rob Thomson will turn to Ranger Suarez in Game 3 on Tuesday night instead.

Suarez appeared in relief in Game 1 on Friday at Houston and got two outs on 11 pitches. The twenty-seven-year-old left-handed pitcher has allowed two-earned runs over 9.2 total innings this postseason.

After a rough start to the regular season, Suarez settled down nicely and finished with a solid 3.65 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, and 129 strikeouts over 155.1 innings and 29 starts. Suarez recorded a career-high in starts this season, breaking his previous career high by 17 starts. 

He'll take on Lance McCullers Jr. on Tuesday night in Philadelphia.
