Game 44 - Luzardo, Schwarber Star in Win Over Sox

Philadelphia Phillies  3 
Boston Red Sox  1 

2026 Philadelphia Phillies
Kids  Club / Club 215
Thursday Night, May 14th
Fenway Park - Boston, MA
21-23, Tied for 2nd Place, 9 games behind the Braves

One Sentence Summary:  On a rainy night in Boston, Jesus Luzardo threw six shutout innings and Kyle Schwarber hit a two-run home run in the eighth, sending the Phillies to a 3-1 win.

What It Means:  The Phillies won the series, but it's a little concerning they only scored six runs in all three games.  A weekend tilt in Pittsburgh is next on the slate.

What Happened:  Luzardo and Ranger Suarez matched scoreless innings through the first five frames.  Suarez would depart after 5 1/3, having struck out eight and allowing four hits.  Luzardo went six innings, also allowing four hits and striking out four.  With no score, and Boston reliever Tyler Samaniego on the mound, Trea Turner singled to lead off the eighth.  Schwarber hit a laser of a home run to right field, his 18th of the season, giving the Phillies a 2-0 lead.  An insurance run was scored later in the inning on a Bryson Stott infield hit to third.  Jose Alvarado gave up a run in the eighth.  Jhoan Duran struck out the side in the ninth to record his seventh save.

Featured Card:  Here's Schwarber's card from this year's team-issued Kids Club / Club 215 set.
