One Sentence Summary: Ranger Suarez settled in to handcuff the Yankees for nearly six innings and the Phillies got a few timely hits when needed in this 9-4 win.
What It Means: They would go for the series sweep on Sunday afternoon behind Zack Wheeler. The Mets keep winning too, maintaining a half game lead in the East.
What Happened: Suarez scattered seven hits over 5 2/3 innings, allowing a run and striking out eight. The Phillies offense took the lead early and didn't look back. J.T. Realmuto singled home Trea Turner with the game's first run in the first. Bryce Harper hit a solo home run, his 15th of the season, in the third. Two more runs scored in the fourth, Turner added an RBI-double in the sixth, and four runs crossed the plate in the seventh, on a two-run home run from Edmundo Sosa and a two-run double from Kyle Schwarber. Shockingly, the Phillies were 3 for 19 with runners in scoring position.
Featured Card: Here's a card from last year's Topps Chrome Update set, marking Suarez's selection to the National League All-Stars.
