Wrigley Field - Chicago, IL
8-15, 4th Place, 7 1/2 games behind the Braves
8-15, 4th Place, 7 1/2 games behind the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper homered, but the offensive woes continued and Jesus Luzardo walked four in his shortened outing, leading to a 7-4 loss to the Cubs.
What It Means: The Phillies have lost seven in a row and 12 of their last 15 games.
What Happened: Luzardo was in constant trouble, but he allowed only one run in his 4 2/3 innings of work. Tanner Banks gave up two more runs and Tim Mayza surrendered a two-run home run to Seiya Suzuki in the seventh, putting the game out of reach. Jose Alavardo endured his own rough outing in the eighth before departing with back spasms. The Phillies were held scoreless until the sixth when Schwarber hit his solo home run, tying the game at 1-1. Harper added a two-run blast in the eighth, and the Phillies mounted a mini-rally in the ninth, scoring an unearned run, before Cubs' reliever Caleb Thielbar got Trea Turner to pop up to end the game.
Featured Card: How about a great Cubs baseball card of Phillies Wall of Famer Tony Taylor?
Transaction: Seth Johnson (rhp) was shuttled back to Lehigh Valley and Alan Rangel (rhp) was called up to take his place.
