Led by Turner and Harper, the Phillies offered run support to starting pitcher Taijuan Walker in the series opener with the Los Angeles Angels.
Trea Turner doesn’t often emote on the field, especially when he’s circling the bases. But as he crossed home plate in the fifth inning Monday night, having put theHittin’ season?It has become a familiar scene. Having already set the franchise record for homers in a month, the Phillies bashed three more en route to a 6-4 victory over Shohei’s Angels before 38,142 paying customers at Citizens Bank Park.
Make it 28 homers in the last 11 games and 52 overall in August for the Phillies, bashing on Broad Street as they were built. It’s the fourth-most homers in a month by any team this season and more than the previous club record of 46 in September 2019.Don’t look now, but the Phillies’ best players are playing like, well, their best players. Turner, who began the month in the worst funk of his career, is batting .
Turner saved a run with the bases loaded in the first inning on Logan O’Hoppe’s hard grounder to the hole at shortstop. He tied the game against Giolito in the first inning. Harper evened it again in the fourth after the Angels took a 3-1 lead against Walker. It marked Walker’s second start since his 10-day breather to deal with arm fatigue. He was sharper last week against the Giants. But he also wiggled out of a bases-loaded jam in the first inning and stranded two runners in both the third and fourth innings.Playing against the Phillies for the first time since they traded him 13 months ago, Mickey Moniak went 3-for-4 with a bunt single, a triple, and an RBI. He also made a leaping catch against the wall in left-center field.
