Phillies end the Tigers' winning streak at 6 with a 4-2 victory
DETROIT (AP) --- Cristopher Snchez struck out seven in seven innings, Bryce
Harper and J.T. Realmuto doubled and the Philadelphia Phillies ended the
Detroit Tigers' six-game winning streak with a 4-2 victory Saturday night.
The Phillies are 45-25 since snapping a 10-game losing streak April 25 and have
the second-highest winning percentage in that span.
Snchez (11-4) allowed two runs on 10 hits, bouncing back from a career-worst
outing against Kansas City. Jonathan Bowlan threw a hitless eighth, and Jhoan
Duran had a 1-2-3 ninth for his 24th save.
Trea Turner's sacrifice fly got the Phillies on the board in the third inning.
Derek Hill prevented Zach McKinstry from driving in the tying run with a
spectacular diving catch.
Realmuto had a two-run double in the fourth to extend the lead.
The Tigers got one back on Eduardo Valencia's solo homer in the fifth.
Casey Mize (4-6) worked 5 2/3 innings for Detroit.
Up next
Phillies RHP Zack Wheeler (9-1, 2.28 ERA) was set to face Tigers LHP Tarik
Skubal (5-4, 3.06) on Sunday.
