Phillies deal outfielder Pache, reliever Domínguez to Baltimore for 2023 All-Star outfielder Hays
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Austin Hays stayed with a first-place team in the East — only as the outfielder moved from Baltimore to Philadelphia, he believed his chance at making a meaningful contribution down the stretch improved. So did his chances at winning the World Series. “That’s everything you could ask for, to go from one winning team to another winning team,” Hays said. “There’s not very many teams you feel like where you’re upgrading from where you were when your team’s in first place. That’s how I feel. I feel like I’m coming into a place where we have an even better chance to win a World Series.” The Phillies acquired Hays from the Orioles on Friday in exchange for right-handed pitcher Seranthony Domínguez and outfielder Cristian Pache in a deal between the East Division leaders in both leagues.
