PHILLIES POSTCAST: Bryce Harper Homers in return, Phillies beat Blue Jays, 8-3

The Philadelphia Phillies used a 6-run first inning, two homers from Trea Turner and 6 innings of one-run baseball from Cristopher Sanchez to get by the Blue Jays, 8-3. In the first, Bryson Stott worked a four-pitch walk, then Trea Turner and Bryce Harper followed with back-to-back homers and just like that the Phillies were off and running with a 3-0 lead. When the dust settled on Toronto starter Bowden Francis, the Phillies took him for seven runs on seven hits over just 1.2 innings of work. Bryce Harper went 1-for-4 with a two walks and his homer in his first game back after being hit by a pitch last Tuesday by the Braves’ Spencer Strider. Harper’s first inning homer traveled 394ft. Turner hit his second homer of the night in the 8th inning, turning on a 3-2 splitter on the hands. He sent it 373 feet over the left field. Christopher Sanchez picks up the win to improve to 5-1 on the season. He allowed one run coming on a solo homer by Davis Schneider in the 5th. Phillies send Mick Abel to the mound Wednesday night for game two of this three game set against the Jay’s Jose Berrios. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
