Daily News | Phillies complete four-game sweep in Pittsburgh with season-high 18 hits in 8-2 win
PITTSBURGH — Sunday’s game went about as well as a game could go for the Phillies. They won, 8-2, completing a four-game sweep of the Pirates. Aaron Nola pitched another gem, finishing his day at six innings, six hits, one run, one walk and eight strikeouts. Interim manager Rob Thomson only needed to use two relievers on Sunday, Mark Appel and Jeurys Familia, giving his bullpen ample rest before an off-day Monday, and a two-game series in Atlanta that starts Tuesday.
But perhaps most impressive was the Phillies’ offense. After a stretch in which the bats have looked largely stagnant, they lit up on Sunday afternoon. The Phillies rattled off 18Five Phillies had a multi-hit game. After going 0-for-9 with runners in scoring position on Saturday night, they went 6-for-10 in that scenario on Sunday afternoon.Bohm goes 0-for-4 on Saturday, and 4-for-5 on Sunday
Alec Bohm had his 14-game hitting streak end Saturday, but quickly made up for that on Sunday. Bohm went 4-for-5, falling just one hit short of the cycle . With his four-hit day, Bohm officially hit over .400 for the month of July . He’s batting .299 for the season. Bohm is the first Phillie with 18 hits over eight games since Shane Victorino did it from Sept. 14-22, 2008.So much happened in this game that Kyle Schwarber’s 33rd home run of the season felt almost overlooked, but he did, in fact, send a ball 441 feet to left-center field. Schwarber’s career high for home runs in a season is 38 . He’s on pace to hit 52 home runs, so it seems like he’ll set a new bar fairly easily .
