News summary

Trea Turner powered the Philadelphia Phillies to a 6-4 victory over the Chicago Cubs, hitting two home runs and driving in four RBIs. Michael Mercado earned his first career win, allowing just one run over five innings, while Jeff Hoffman secured his seventh save despite a late scare from a three-run homer by Seiya Suzuki. The Phillies, who are playing without Bryce Harper and Kyle Schwarber, have now won seven of their last ten games. In a previous game against the Miami Marlins, Turner also delivered a crucial two-run single to help the Phillies rally from a four-run deficit for a 7-6 win. The Phillies' elite pitching staff has had to step up due to injuries, but Turner's recent performances have been pivotal. Philadelphia maintains the best record in the MLB and continues to lead the NL East by a significant margin.
