News summary

The Philadelphia Phillies triumphed over the Tampa Bay Rays 9-4, propelled by Trea Turner's stellar performance, which included two two-run homers and four RBIs, bringing his season total to 18 home runs and a .299 batting average. Kyle Schwarber made history with his 14th leadoff homer of the season before leaving the game due to injury, while Bryce Harper contributed four hits, including three doubles, despite a near-homer that was overturned due to fan interference. The eighth inning saw the Phillies score five runs, highlighted by a clutch two-run double from pinch-hitter Cal Stevenson and more runs from Buddy Kennedy and Turner. The victory marked the Phillies' 29th game over .500 this season. Tensions flared as Tampa's Edwin Uceta was ejected after hitting Nick Castellanos with a pitch, leading to a brief bench-clearing incident. Starting pitcher Ranger Suárez had a rough outing, but the offense compensated for his struggles to secure the win.
