Girardi: ‘Hard night to sleep’ after Phillies collapse to Mets

The Philadelphia Phillies had a loss to forget on Thursday night, but it’s one that manager Joe Girardi will have a tough time forgetting.

Girardi’s Phillies blew a 7-0 lead against the New York Mets and surrendered seven runs in the ninth inning to lose 8-7.

Girardi spoke with MLB Network Radio’s Mike Ferrin on Friday and talked about the game. Ferrin asked whether Girardi felt like sometimes the sport of baseball doesn’t love him.

Girardi said yes. Then he talked about how he handled the awful collapse. The Phillies manager said he had a hard time sleeping after the loss.
