Daily News | Phillies’ road winning streak reaches 11 with 8-4 victory over Rays
of four singles in a span of seven pitches. It’s Trea Turner thwacking a first-pitch slider off the foul pole in left field and Nick Castellanos crushing a heater off the batter’s eye in center. It’s J.T. Realmuto blistering a line drive through the middle to score Bryce Harper from second base, then Bryson Stott ringing a double to left-center.
For most of this about-face, the Phillies have been buoyed by the starting pitching. And in dealing the Rays their first home series loss since April, Taijuan Walker completed seven innings despite walking five batters. In the second, third, and fifth innings, the Phillies strung together four, three, and three hits in a row, respectively. They hit 12 balls that came off the bat at 100 mph or hotter.
And it showed what the Phillies’ bats are capable of doing. They entered the game with middling rankings in the NL — sixth in on-base plus slugging, seventh in hits, eighth in homers, and most galling, 11th in runs scored.
