Phillies fans were looking forward to seeing both when the team’s new closer, Jhoan Duran, would come on to pitch for the first time after being acquired in a July 30 trade with the Twins.

Bader has become a fan favorite in his first season in Minnesota. His late-inning prowess and Gold Glove-caliber defense make him an attractive rental player at the deadline.
