One Sentence Summary: Alec Bohm did the honors this time, hitting a game-winning sacrifice fly to score Adolis Garcia with the winning run in Game 2.
What It Means: The Phillies swept the double header and the series, and they're 3-0 under new manager Don Mattingly. They'll head to Miami next for a quick four-game road series with the Marlins.
What Happened: It was a bullpen game, with Tim Mayza, Nolan Hoffman and Trevor Richards each pitching a pair of innings. Seven Phillies relievers allowed five runs on 13 hits while striking out 12, and Chase Shugart would earn his second win of the day.

Kyle Scwarber had four hits in the game, including a two out, game-tying RBI double in the bottom of the ninth, scoring Brandon Marsh. Marsh had collected a clutch, pinch-double to start the inning. In the bottom of the 10th, Garcia started the inning at second as the zombie runner, went to third on a perfect Bryson Stott sacrifice bunt and scored on Bohm's sacrifice fly.
Featured Card: Topps produced a cool Topps Now card to celebrate the walk-off wins in both halves of the double header.
