    Phillies host Padres with Trea Turner back from DL

    The Philadelphia Phillies still own the best record in the National League, but they have dropped five of their past seven games as they return home to open a three-game series with the San Diego Padres on Monday. After falling to the New York Mets on June 9 in the finale of a two-game series in London, the Phillies returned stateside for a six-game road trip. Philadelphia lost two of three games to both the Red Sox and Orioles, with Sunday's 8-3 loss to Baltimore getting particularly ugly. The Phillies went 2-for-14 with runners in scoring position and left 12 on base, and they also lost manager Rob Thomson in the sixth, as he was ejected by plate umpire Mike Estabrook.
