Andrew Bailey (PHI) -29.5%
Bailey came on in relief of Aaron Nola to pitch the seventh inning, and after getting Adeiny Hechavarria to ground out (+4.8%), he allowed a solo jack to Chris Johnson (+24.7%) to tie the score at four. He then gave up singles to Ichiro Suzuki (-4.0%) and to Martin Prado (-5.6%) before getting lifted in favor of Hector Neris.

At the plate, he ground out to third in the third (-2.5%), drew an intentional walk in the fourth (+0.4%), grounded out to third in the seventh (-4.8%), and struck out to end the Marlins' eighth (-3.1%). Most of the damage was incurred defensively in the sixth inning, when his throwing error allowed two Philadelphia runs (eventually three) instead of a third out (-23.2%).

I made a change to the daily scoring and to the 10-day rolling average, crediting (or penalizing, as it were) the appropriate players for errors. In the adjustment, Adeiny Hechavarria was given -23.2% for his error, and that equal percentage was given to Justin Nicolino.
