One Sentence Summary: The offense came through with several clutch hits, bailing out a lackluster performance from Aaron Nola in this 9-5 win.
What It Means: The Phillies won the series with the White Sox and they'll now head out on the road for three games in Toronto and three games in Milwaukee.
What Happened: Nola went 4 1/3 innings, allowing five runs on six hits, as his ERA increased to 5.86. The Phillies scored early and often and fortunately kept adding on runs throughout the game. In the bottom of the first, Bryce Harper doubled home Trea Turner, who had also doubled to reach, with the game's first run. Rafael Marchan connected for a two-run home run in the second, and Brandon Marsh added a solo home run in the third, breaking a 3-3 tie.
