Phillies Rally for Comeback Sweep | MLB News

After 13 straight days of baseball, the Phillies’ pitching duo Aaron Nola and Jesus Luzardo delivered monster outings to set up a sweep against the Twins. In the finale, Andrew Painter battled back from a brutal first inning—where he surrendered a grand slam—to pitch five innings and allow just one more run. The offense finally woke up in the sixth, loading the bases and scoring, then Alec Bohm crushed a three-run homer to cut the lead. The comeback kept rolling in the eighth, with Bohm driving in another run and Bryan De La Cruz delivering a clutch two-run single to give Philly the lead. The bullpen locked it down, securing a huge win that injects serious momentum into their crucial seven-game homestand—and could reshape their playoff fate.
