Phillies batter sloppy Rangers for fifth straight win

Phillies batter sloppy Rangers for fifth straight win

The Phillies capitalized on four Texas Rangers errors and continue to pummel opponents with timely hitting, including three home runs, in winning for the 28th time in 34 outings, 11-4. Edmundo Sosa hit a three-run home run in the fourth inning, after a solo job by J.T. Realmuto in the third put the Phillies up for good. Bryce Harper added the exclamation point with an eighth-inning solo shot off the facing of the second deck in right to position the Phillies for their seventh sweep of the season in Thursday's matinee.
