Game 57 - Wednesday Afternoon, May 29th in Philadelphia
Record - 39-18, 1st Place, 6 games ahead of the Braves
One Sentence Summary: Cristopher Sanchez and timely hitting from the Phillies offense combined to end the three-game losing streak.
What It Means: The Phillies have always seemed to have issues on the West Coast, and this trip was no different as they went 2-4. They're home for six games with the Cardinals and Brewers before heading to London for a pair of highly anticipated games against the Mets. (I still can't believe we're not going to this, but school and work commitments have won out.)
What Happened: Sanchez pitched six shutout innings, allowing four hits while striking out seven. Gregory Soto and Seranthony Dominguez pitched scoreless frames and Spencer Turnbull allowed a ninth inning run. Kyle Schwarber led off the game with a home run, his 11th of the season, and Cristian Pache added an RBI single in the second.

Bases cleared in the fourth when a few pitches from Giants' pitcher Kyle Harrison got a little too close to Bryce Harper's head. Nick Castellanos gave the Phillies some breathing room when he connected for a two-run home run in the fifth. And the Phillies added two more in the eighth on RBI singles from Schwarber and Harper.
Featured Card: Castellanos has had a mostly miserable season so far, so it was good to see him go 3 for 5 with a double, home run and a pair of RBIs in this game. Here's his Kids Club card, available exclusively at the ballpark.
