Broom Time! Phillies Sweep the Padres 6-4 Behind Wheeler

View show details

Phillies 6, Padres 4. The broom comes out. Zack Wheeler carves the Padres up, eight strikeouts and two hits over seven, the only dent a Manny Machado two-run homer in the seventh. Adolis García's fifth-inning solo shot and a Justin Crawford run on a throwing error build a three-nothing lead, and when Machado pulls San Diego within one, the Phillies answer with three in the bottom of the seventh off Adrian Morejon. A Jackson Merrill two-run homer off José Alvarado in the ninth makes the finish a touch loud, but it's a sweep. Three straight over San Diego, and the Phillies climb into the wild card, a half-game up on the team they just buried.
